I bought this variegated Weigela for a big container, and I see online
that it blooms "early spring" - was wondering if it's already bloomed
for the year, or can I hope to see flowers yet? I bought it for the
folaige, but flowers would be a nice bonus this year.

The weigela in my zone 8 Shoreline garden have only just budded out -
flowers aren't expected until mid to late May.
