Yes, well spotted! They love tubular flowers, especially red or orange colored ones. Great that you were able to see this. Have you subscribed to our channel? If you haven't, you might like to think about it, because once you are subscribed, each time we post a new video (which we are doing all the time), you will find that they will turn up automatically in your feed. And, as you find our videos helpful, it would be great if you could kindly share the links with your friends and click the "like" button too, because that will help other people find out about the information as well. And, now that we are in the midst of the main planting season (spring through late Fall) try to visit our partnering garden centers: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/. They are located all over our Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern region, and that's where you will find all sorts of beautiful, tried and true and cutting edge, top performing selections, so be sure to stop in regularly throughout the seasons because there will be a steady stream of fresh shipments coming in weekly.

Hi, I bought this plant last year. Very tiny. It grew three strands quite long, flowered. All good. This year, the same three strands have grown. They are about 2ft long but just the same three strands. How do I get it to bush out without harming the three strands that have grown please. Thanks for reading.

[@OverdevestNurseries]

Thanks for your question. You will have noticed that our plants are very bushy, shapely and well filled out....., that comes with constant pruning (in our nursery we call it manicuring). 😃😁👏 And as you've probably noticed we go to a lot of trouble to produce these consistent, premium sized plants that provide an "instant effect" once planted. The idea obviously is that you don't have to got through the anguish of nursing and shaping baby plants. Those 3 "strands" (branches) will need to be trimmed back, if you haven't done it before, it takes a little courage and faith in what we are telling you. If your plant was ours.... we would trim the branches by about two thirds, which using your measurements would be about 8 inches from the ground)! This will get it to break with new bushy growth from the base and by doing this regularly you will eventually wind up with a bushy plant. Weigela and especially this excellent selection respond well to pruning, so go on take a deep breath and try it! 😉💚👍 You didn't mention whether you are already subscribed to our channel or not, if you haven't subscribed yet, can we suggest you think about it because once you are subscribed, each time we post a new video (which we are doing all the time), it will turn up automatically in your feed. And as you find our videos helpful, it would be great if you could kindly click the "like" button too, because that will help other people find the information as well. Finally, now that our partnering garden centers: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/ are fully stocked with fresh new plants (including some FANTASTIC Weigelas, like in this video), so if you live in our Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern region be sure to stop in and take a look…. Because that’s where you will discover all sorts of beautiful, tried and true and cutting edge, top performing selections like David features in our videos.

@@OverdevestNurseries Thanks so much... I will give it a go.i assume I do this after flowering. I'm in the south of UK. ☀️🌷

[@GardenDoodles]

We have two of them and they are fantastic shrubs. They bloom heavily in spring and then sporadically throughout the summer. Nice bright foliage also so beautiful all around.

[@OverdevestNurseries]

Great, now you should try trimming one of them & compare! I think it will be interesting to watch the difference!

[@BEAZY_5150]
