Czechmark Trilogy Weigela (Weigela florida 'VUKOZGemini')

Czechmark Trilogy Weigela brings a big, cheerful flower show to the garden without demanding a big footprint. Its changing blooms create a lively mix of white, pink, and red that keeps beds and borders looking fresh through the flowering season. The compact shape fits easily into everyday landscapes, making it simple to add color near patios, walks, and entryways. Plant it where you want reliable bloom, pollinator activity, and a shrub that stays easy to manage.

Distinctive Features

This deciduous weigela is known for flowers that open white and shift to pink and then red, so multiple colors can appear at the same time on one plant. Glossy green foliage provides a clean backdrop that looks good even when the shrub is between bloom cycles. The habit is naturally rounded and mounded with gently arching stems that keep the plant looking full. In bloom, it is especially attractive to hummingbirds and other pollinators.

Growing Conditions

• Sun: Full sun for the best flowering, with part shade tolerated.
• Soil: Average, well-drained soil is ideal, and it performs best when drainage is consistent.
• Water: Water regularly during establishment, then provide deep watering during extended dry spells.
• USDA Zones: Grows well in zones 4 to 8.
• Mature Size: Reaches about 3 to 4 feet tall and about 3 to 4 feet wide.
• Habit: Compact, rounded, and mounded with lightly arching branches.

Ideal Uses

• Focal Point: Use the tri-color bloom display as a spring to summer focal point near outdoor living spaces and high-visibility beds.
• Mixed Borders: Layer it with perennials and evergreens to add bright, shifting color without overpowering the planting.
• Foundation Planting: Place it where a compact flowering shrub can soften corners and add seasonal interest.
• Pollinator Gardens: Include it to support hummingbirds and pollinators during peak flowering periods.
• Mass Planting: Plant in groups to create a broader sweep of color and a fuller, more unified look.

Low Maintenance Care

• Pruning: Prune right after the main spring bloom to shape the plant and avoid removing next season's flower buds.
• Feeding: Feed lightly in early spring with compost or a balanced fertilizer to support healthy growth.
• Mulching: Apply mulch over the root zone to conserve moisture and reduce weeds, keeping mulch off the stems.
• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist in the first growing season, then water when the top few inches of soil are dry.
• Winter Cleanup: Remove dead or damaged branches in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
