Weigelas are valuable garden shrubs that grow freely in almost any soil and require little maintenance. They are deciduous shrubs growing 1.5 – 2.0 tall and just a bit less wide. Leaves are ovate to oval. Bell or funnel shaped flowers come in many colours and appear at the end of spring / beginning of summer and sporadically towards the end of summer. “Olympiade”^® has bright golden-yellow new leaves that turn greenish-yellow as new leaves continue to emerge. Flowers are striking purple. It thrives in semi-fertile, slightly moist soil. Prune right after flowering to a third or half on new growths. Flowers on last year’s wood. Fully hardy. This variety does best in partail shade.
