?Verweig?, commonly sold under the trade name of MY MONET, is a dwarf, rounded, deciduous weigela that typically grows to only 12-18? tall and as wide. It is noted for its small size, pink flowers and variegated (pink, cream and green) foliage. It was discovered as a sport (branch mutation) of Weigela florida ?Tango?. Campanulate, soft pink flowers bloom in late spring, with scattered repeat bloom occurring throughout summer. Elliptic to ovate leaves (to 3? long) have green centers surrounded by creamy white with pink on the margins. The impressionistic leaves are purportedly reminiscent of the work of Monet, hence the trade name.
