Re: Weigela

Thanks for the offer, Donna, but we have 32 of them in our nursery aso I can
get another easily.  But you might like to try propagating them anyway as
Weigelas are apparently one of the easiest shrubs to propagate.  FG says
best time is softwood cuttings in summer.  I took mine in late May I think.
Another interesting note - I'd never found a common name for Weigela but the
FG article calls them Cardinal Shrub.
