A reblooming dwarf variety of deciduous flowering shrub that reaches approximately 24 inches tall and 18 inches wide. The Prism Series are bred for compact habits, small leaves, excellent branching, and dramatic foliage colors. This small but striking shrub offers gorgeous blooms for three seasons. The full bloom occurs in late spring, lasting for 3 to 4 weeks, with additional blooms continuing through the summer. Bold clusters of bell-shaped cherry-red flowers create a dazzling display against the dark mahogany foliage, which appears almost black when exposed to full sun. Rich in pollen and nectar, these flowers attract bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. With its dense, compact-rounded habit, Arabian Nights is perfect for small garden spaces or patio pots. It serves as an excellent specimen plant and looks even more stunning when grouped or massed in beds, borders, and landscapes. This shrub is a must-have for any garden designed to attract pollinators. Weigela is easy to grow and low maintenance. It thrives in sunny to partly shady locations, though the best flowering occurs in full sun. The shrub prefers average to moderately fertile, medium moist soil that drains well and has an acidic pH, ideally between 5.5 and 6.2. To maintain shape and size, prune immediately after flowering.
