Weigela is certainly one of the most effective and 
mo-t satisfactory shrubs we know of. In habit of 
growth it is naturally bushy and symmetrical. 
It grows vigorously, yet not rampant, and is with- 
out difficulty kept in good form. All varieties are 
exceedingly free bloomers. No collection of shrubs 
is considered complete without one or more varie- 
ties of this favorite. 
W. Candida—A very valuable shrub of upright 
growth; flowers trumpet-shaped, white. 
W. Floribunda—A profuse bloomer; flowers dark 
~ erimson. 
W. Rosea—Perhaps the most popular shrub yet in- 
troduced; bears rose-colored, trumpet-shaped 
flowers in great profusion on the gracefully bend- 
ing branches. This handsome plant adapts it- 
self admirably to shady places where few shrubs 
will do well, although it attains its greatest per- 
fection in fully exposed situations. 
W. Rosea Variegata—A ’ beautiful variety of the 
above; contrasts very pleasingly with other 
shrubs; foliage green margined with creamy 
white, flowers pink.
