Weigela Pruning
Weigelas are naturally arching shrubs, blooming from late spring to early summer. After the spring flowering is done, it is time for weigela pruning. Questions? Contact us today.
How to Prune Weigela
Stand back and mentally mark one-third to one-half down the branches. Cut back all branches to this mark. This encourages new growth.
Allow the shrub to re-grow stems throughout the summer and fall. Do not prune anymore until after flowering the following year, only if is needed.
Always prune any dead or diseased branching from the shrub immediately. Be sure to sterilize your pruners, afterwards with rubbing alcohol.
