I have 6 Weigelia plants in my garden. All the plants in the garden have started to grow but the Weigelia's and there appears to be no growth other than on branch on bush. Could the severe winter caused the problem and is.ther any way to save the bushes.
Weigela tend to be late to the spring party and are among the last shrubs to leaf out. Give them more time.

One side of my shrub has all dead branches and is dead at the roots. The other side is perfect and full. Do I cut out the dead roots and see if the healthy side will grow in that direction as well as the direction it is currently growing?
My apologies. I was researching Weigela and wrongly assumed it was still involved in my post.
Weigela is the shrub.
Can you give the name of the shrub you are referencing!
You can also upload images for us to look at.
I am seeing a few leaves on only only one branch of my 6 Weigela bushes. I think they may have gotten winter damage with an ice storm in April. It looks like buds may have started at some point but now all the branches are brittle. Is there anything that can be done to save the bushes.
Weigela can be slow to leaf out, so give it more time.

Bush is no longer in the process of "blooming" but still has some existing blooms
This will mean after the blooms fall off, or start to fall off. You don't have to deadhead them all at once. You can cut them as they start to degrade, one or a few at a time.
Alternatively, you can wait to cut them after they stop blooming completely, if you wish, as long as you can deal with some unsightly blooms.
we were gifted with a Weigela bush about 12 years ago. It thrived and is a beautiful bush . a year ago we moved house and I would like to have some of that plant in my new garden. how could I go about this?
Plan ahead when transplanting a weigela shrub by pruning the roots at least two months before the fall transplanting date, generally in July or August. The process involves shortening the long roots to force new root growth closer to the trunk.
Pruning the weigela creates balance between the above-ground growth and root system. This transplanting step prepares the shrub for new growth after being moved to a new location. The best time to prune is after the spring blooms have faded in summer.
Dig and move a weigela shrub in late fall through winter. The shrub is in the dormant stage during this time, so less stress is placed on the plant.
I live in Missouri and it has already bloomed very well once this spring. I pulled out the dead blooms, but shouldn't I cut off something to get it to bloom again? Thanks for an answer.
This just requires correct pruning at the correct time, mostly. Here is an article that will explain in more detail: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/shrubs/weigela/pruning-weigela.htm

I pulled the old blooms out of the socket (so to speak) but now do I cut off something to get it to bloom again.
