Thanks Andrew. I was wondering if it was a Weiglea. These flowers are different than the pink ones on my veriagated Weigleas. These are longer and more trumpet like.

I checked out the site Lori. I also did a google and saw some pictures and I would say that I have a " Red Prince " for sure. Thanks

It looks wonderful ... certainly worth keeping even if the garden fashionistas have moved on to other shrubs...lol. some wiegelas are borderline hardy here... but I have seen red and pinks at the nursery.
Think I might take a toodle to see if New Dawn is in~.
