Description
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’.
