Garden Goods Direct | Abelia Kaleidoscope

Abelia Kaleidoscope is also one of the longest-flowering dwarf abelias. It is easy to work into smaller landscapes due to its dwarf habit and uniform growth. The deliciously fragrant white flowers will perfume your yard from spring through fall. The bright yellow and green leaves of Abelia Kaleidoscope add interest to dull landscape areas and stand out when planted in front of darker evergreen trees and shrubs. Even when not in flower, Kaleidoscope plants work hard to provide colorful interest to your yard. Use Abelia Kaleidoscope as a flowering hedge along driveways and property lines. It is also called Glossy Abelia due to the shiny leaves. The bright yellow leaves change to a pleasing orange color in late fall. Heat tolerance makes it useful for southern gardeners in areas where other abelia Grandiflora varieties might not work. Abelia plants should be pruned in the early spring but can be pruned in the mid-summer, but only if needed to maintain height and shape, as pruning in the summer will reduce flowers that may appear.
