A fast-growing shrub that's available in a range of colors, weigela (Weigela florida) offers a showy quality of blooms. "Bare stems give rise to 3 inch long by 1 inch wide leaves in spring followed by a burst of color from the flowers," says Adrienne Roethling. "Numerous, tubular shaped flowers are born at every leaf." Typically the flowers are pink or white, but newer varieties come in red, magenta, or white and change to pink. This plant should reach maturity in about three years, growing up to 12 inches tall in 12 months.
