The Wiegela 'Java Red', Weigela florida 'Java Red', is one of the oldest Wiegelas. It is a dwarf, only rarely exceeding four feet of height, making it at its biggest half the size of the majority of Weigelas. Due to its compact habit it is one of the least prone to ranginess when left unpruned, though some degree of ranginess seems inescapable even with a compact dwarf. This plant is useful as a background planting, summer screen or in shrub borders. This shrub is deciduous.
