weigela shrub

Question

I live in Citrus City, Fla. and am hesitant to plant my weigela in full sun. Mostly only tropical plants can tolerate the hot sun here. Would it be better if I planted it in morning sun and afternoon shade…or vice versa or go with the full sun? 

Answer 1

Weigela's do best in full sun. However, they can tolerate light shade at times, especially where summers are very hot.
