Abelia Radiance

Abelia Radiance Details

Abelia grandiflora Radiance, commonly known as Glossy Abelia, features stunning flowers and colourful foliage. The foliage emerges green with subtle pink tones, ages to become variegated yellow and green, then takes on silvery tones in autumn as the yellowing fades. The foliage is complemented with masses of white flowers which emerge from pink buds during summer and autumn. It typically grows to 1 m tall and 1.2 m wide, performing best when positioned in full sun on a well-drained, semi-sheltered site. It is tolerant of moderate frost, coastal environments, and short periods of dry. Abelia Radiance is a fantastic plant for adding variety and colour, and for this reason it is a popular choice for borders, mixed plantings, courtyard and cottage gardens, planting around outdoor living areas, or for maintaining in a container. This Glossy Abelia readily blends with most plant combinations which is why it is a popular choice among landscape designers.
