Weigela ‘Electric Love’

Weigela 'Electric Love' is a dwarf ornamental shrub with tubular, red flowers and dark foliage.

Weigela ‘Electric Love’ is a stunning ornamental shrub with shock-appeal with a low, mounding, dwarf habit to 2 feet tall and 3 feet wide. Abundant panicles of funnel-shaped fire engine red flowers with creamy-white stamens make a bold contrast against its dark foliage all summer long. Stunning as a ground cover, in the mixed border and on the patio. Very tidy. Seldom needs pruning. Blooms on old wood. Hummingbird magnet.
