Etymology
The genus name, Weigela, is named after the German scientist Christian Ehrenfried Weigel.[2] The species epithet subsessilis, is from the term subsessile, which means "nearly, but not quite sessile." The root, sessilis is derived from Latin, which means low, dwarf in plants.[3]
The species which have buttery-yellow flowers are also called as the Canary Weigela.
