Kolkwitzia- wiegela ! ( spelling ?)9
Can't believe it's me can you .? i can't either. You may remember me recently sending a picture of a small pink
Flower with leaves and it was decided it was a Kolkwitzia or a weigela ?
It's a nice bush so I took 6 cuttings which now have good root systems and I have put in larger pots. Question is - was I wasting my time or will they grow similar to the parent plant. And - when they grow further can I keep them in large tubs ?

They look like weigela to me

I agree with weigelia, the leaves look a bit too big for Kolkwitzia, still make a nice shrub though, Derek.

Thanks guys, for the weigela decision and other info. I'll do as you say and look forward to the result.

If you've taken cuttings (vegetive propagation) they will have exactly the same traits as the parent plant.
They will be fine in a tub but will never grow to the proportions of the parents. Keep watered and fed and re-pot every 2-3 years with fresh compost
