I do think it needs to be able to stretch its wings to be seen at its best.
It's the combination of the many colours at one time that make it so
luscious to look at. Like you, I've never gone overboard about Weigelas but
this is something very special, IMO.


How big is your plant and how do you prune it?
For my part I have rather pined for a
Deutzia setchuenensis var. corymbiflora
since seeing one at a NGS garden about 10 years ago, but I have a
feeling I have nowhere to put it

oh and Calycanthus for the wonderful allspice smelling seed heads. Not
sure if I like occidentals or orientalis, though I did grow two from
seed last year and then lost the pots somewhere, well, I can't find the
plants , last time I saw them they were definitely in the greenhouse but
I assume I gave them away by accident
