Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Maximowiczii looks quite similar to middendorffiana, and subsessilis, all three are yellow flowered and very different from the Weigela florida cultivars you generally encounter in gardens. Weigela will cross with Diervilla although I don't know if any of the yellow species has been attempted.
