It would be hard to suggest finer all-round 
shrubs than the different members of the 
Weigela family, the finest of our garden 
shrubs. They grow into magnificent high 
bushes of splendid shape and character, and 
can be used for many purposes. Great im- 
provement has been made in the color and 
size of their flower by hybridizers, and it is 
now possible to obtain Weigelas ranging in 
color from pure white to deep carmine.
