Water the weigelia

The heavy vegetation and broad leaves of the weigelia mean that it has cool soil. In case of drought, additional, copious watering will help it to maintain itself and to flower well.

Weigelia water requirements

Weigelia’s water needs are important, especially during the growing season, particularly at a young age.

Signs of lack of water

In case of lack of water the leaves turn gray, roll up on themselves; flowering stops; young shoots soften.

Water quality

All waters are suitable for watering.

Necessary material

Watering can, watering lance.

Watering frequency

Water copiously when planting. Then, from May to September, water plants that have been installed for less than two years. In case of marked drought, water every three to four days (three watering cans per plant). This is important in summer when young shoots and flower buds form.
