Abelia x grandiflora Gold Spot
Abelia
Common Name: Abelia x grandiflora Gold Spot Latin Name: Abelia x grandiflora 'Gold Spot' Soil: Fertile, well-drained soil Position: Full sun Flowering period/colour: June to September/ White Hardiness: Half hardy Eventual height/spread: 3m/4m Special features: Golden green leaves that are held on arching branches. If you want a vibrant shrub with long-lasting flowers then the 'Gold Spot' is a fantastic choice. The foliage is golden green and in summer, through to autumn, the leaves are complimented by the pretty, tubular flowers. The flowers open from deep pink buds and are white, with a pale pink blush. In milder areas the leaves will hold all year round, but for most this is a semi-evergreen shrub. This Abelia is a great choice for low-level structural planting as the branches gently arch; we love it in a mixed bed with an accenting plant, like the darker green leaves of the popular Abelia grandiflora.
Abelia x grandiflora Kaleidoscope
Abelia
Common Name: Abelia x grandiflora Kaleidoscope Latin Name: Abelia x grandiflora 'Kaleidoscope' Soil: Fertile, well-drained soil Position: Full sun Flowering period/colour: June to October/ Light pink Hardiness: Half hardy Eventual height/spread: 1m/1.5m Special features: Colourful, variegated foliage and pretty pink flowers. This Abelia is a wonderfully colourful semi-evergreen shrub that offers a kaleidoscope of colours for most of the year. The variegated foliage is at its brightest in spring when the leaves emerge with vivid shades of yellow and green. As the foliage matures throughout summer the colour deepens and darkens. Summer foliage is accompanied by fragrant, pale pink-white, tubular flowers that open from rosy pink buds and last until October. The final show of colour comes in autumn when the leaves have an orange-red sheen. In milder areas the leaves will hold, but for most this is a semi-evergreen shrub. We love this Abelia in a colourful border, particularly a sensory one, and it looks great alongside the much darker leaf colours of the Nandina deomsticata 'Obsession'.

Abelia x grandiflora Radiance
Abelia
Common Name: Abelia Radiance Latin Name: Abelia x grandiflora 'Radiance' Soil: Fertile, well-drained soil Position: Full sun Flowering period/colour: Summer/ White Hardiness: Hardy Eventual height/spread: 0.9m/1.5m Special features: Masses of white flowers that last well into autumn. The 'Radiance' is a delightful semi-evergreen shrub with so much to offer. Crimson-coloured stems hold ovate, mid-green leaves that have irregular creamy yellow margins, which makes this an eye-catching little plant. The leaves are accompanied by masses of white flowers that appear in late summer and last well into autumn when most other flowers have faded. The tubular flowers, which have pale pink calyces, are lightly scented and are popular with insects. This Abelia will eventually form a mound and it works well in a large container, or in a mixed bed. We love this when planted as a low-level accent plant and it works really well with the rosy tones of the Abelia x grandiflora 'Kaleidoscope'.
