My Monet

weigela 'My Monet'

After 6 years, I'm finally getting a beautiful show from My Monet. I bought this small weigela in 2007 with the intention of planting it my rock garden - appropriate since the size was listed as 12"x24". As I was trying to figure out where in the rock garden to plant it, I realized it wouldn't even be seen among all the round pebbles. It's leaves are mottled shades of cream, greyish green with a little pink and would blend right in. We ended up planting it with some bigger rocks as part of a small retaining wall in the front garden. This year it's full of blooms and grown to about 24"x36".
