where are you ... z5 is about half the US ... it might matter in moving it ...

when do you want to move it ... rejuvenation pruning could take up to 3 years to do ... but in you want it moved now.. you might not want to go that way ...

more facts please.. ken

I live in central Massachusetts

I plan on moving it next spring.

Sorry for the mis-quote.

It is going to be a Renovation pruning.

I plan on basically cutting it down to a manageable size to move.

I may have over pruned my Weigela, I removed more than 1/3 of the growth and root pruned at the same time.. I was hoping to prep it for a renovation pruning in late winter so I could transplant it next spring.

The plant is not looking to good now

Is there anything I can do to help along?

Thanks

If it is burnt looking it is because you cut it back in August and the remaining foliage was damaged by the sudden change in light exposure. If it is wilted or shriveled it is because you cut the roots while the plant was in leaf.

You should have skipped the root pruning - particularly at this time of the year.

It is burnt looking,

I have been giving it deep watering (approx. 2 gallons of water) every other day.

Are there steps I can take to help revive the plant?

Thanks
