‘Midnight Sun’ is a compact weigela valued for its colorful foliage and spring flowers. The foliage provides deep, dark coloration that contrasts beautifully with the pink tubular flowers, which appear along the branches in spring and can attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. The foliage changes color as the season goes on creating an amazing display of dark purple-ish, bergundy, and yellow-orange. Its compact habit makes it useful for foundation plantings, perennial borders, containers, and smaller garden spaces where a full-sized weigela would be too large. It performs best with good sunlight, which helps maintain the strongest foliage color, and benefits from well-drained soil.
Height: 1–2 ft
Width: 1–2 ft
Flower time: May–June
Sun/Shade: Full sun to part shade
Deer resistant
