Weigela florida 'Velda'
Choose Tuxedo Weigela if you want dark foliage with spring flowers near a foundation or mixed border; the tradeoff is it is more of a color shrub than a privacy plant.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The dark foliage gives it more presence than many spring-flowering shrubs. |
| Growth Rate | B+ | It fills in at a useful pace, but it is not a quick privacy screen. |
| Maintenance | B | Plan on light shaping after bloom if you want it tidy near the house. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | B | It works in tighter beds if you give it room instead of crowding it. |
| Screening Value | D | It drops leaves in winter and should not be used for year-round screening. |
At PGNE, we’d typically place Tuxedo Weigela where the foliage can contrast with green shrubs, stone, or light siding, not where it has to carry a bed by itself all winter.

Very dedicated and professional. We are happy with the way they planted 14 trees for us. 11 green giants, 2 white pines and 1 Norway spruce.
Picked up my plants-ostrich ferns and blue ice amsonia without any problems! Wonderful, responsive owners! Will be buying from them in the future!
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
