Re: My Monet Weigela

**j* e* m* s* <h*@sbcglobal.net>**

I've found that grouping My Monets helps with their show...I love the 
idea of putting them with a red ground cover rose, Doreen. My Monet 
usually goes dormant somewhat earlier than other weigela.

I think there's something about the sun exposure, too, maybe part sun?

I'm anxious to see how EyeCatcher weigela will do this year. It did 
well last year and may be able to tolerate pet paws better than My 
Monet.
