I'm not sure about the 'weeping' version, but here's a few photos and some info that you may find useful if you haven't already ordered anything. The one I ordered called "Twilight Butterfly Bush" was produced for our hot dry climate and looks much like the Royal Red version - only hardier - from what I was told.

I ordered 2 and planted them out in full sun (4th of July weekend). They're doing fine and one already has a bloom. They're pretty small, but are suposed to grow to around 8' x 8' . . . hope that helps?
