Two young plants that have taken well. A little disappointed by the density of the flowering, but I suppose it will improve. Well, I hope so!!

Description
The Weigela 'Picobella Rosa' is a new variety of dwarf weigelia with particularly long and abundant, bright, luminous pink flowering. This small bush with a rounded and compact habit is perfect for small spaces and pot cultivation. Its fine, glossy, medium-green foliage wonderfully highlights its pretty flowering in the form of small bells from May to October. Weigelas are easy to grow in ordinary, cool, well-drained soil. Compact varieties combine well with a wide range of small bushes and perennials in cottage or romantic flowerbeds, low flowering hedges, or large borders.
Derived among others from western Florida, the Weigela 'Picobella Rosa' is native to northeastern China, Korea and Japan. Weigela are Asian plants and belong to the honeysuckle family. This new cultivar was selected by the horticulturist Bert Verhouef in his nursery in Hazerswoude, Holland. The 'Picobella Rosa' has an exceptionally slow, naturally compact growth, forming a rounded and bushy dome. It reaches about 40 cm (15.7 in) in height with a 60 cm (23.6 in) span at maturity. This variety has a deciduous, medium-green foliage consisting of fine and lanceolate, slightly undulate, satin leaves which turn yellow-orange in autumn before falling. Its funnel-shaped, sustained, and bright pink flowers are abundant from May to October. They are carried in corymbs at the end of the branches from the previous year. This flowering is very melliferous and nectariferous.
Hardy to well below -20°C, the Weigelia 'Picobella Rosa' likes being in full sun or semi-shade, in cool but well-drained soil. Its cheerful prolonged flowering will brighten any setting and will, combined for example with purple Berberis, form a stunning border along a path or lawn. In a flowerbed, mix it for example with Galega, blood-red or variegated dogwood, ornamental brambles, a Physocarpus, snowberries or even a Buddleia alternifolia Unique, also a dwarf shrub with blue-mauve flowers. In the background, the very dark foliage of holly or yew will form a contrasting winter scene. This weigelia can also be pot-grown on a terrace, or as a standalone to draw the eye in small gardens.

Planting and care
Hardy down to -25°C, the Weigela 'Picobella Rosa' thrives in sun or semi-shade. Plant it in ordinary cool, well-drained, slightly acidic, or neutral to slightly alkaline soil, from October to March (outside of frost periods). To maintain a compact habit and promote floribundus, prune the branches that have carried the spring flowers by 2/3 just after flowering.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
