Abelia x grandiflora 'Kaleidoscope'
Kaleidoscope Abelia is a vibrant, dwarf evergreen shrub prized for its ever-changing foliage and long bloom season. New growth emerges bright yellow with green centers, matures to golden-lime in summer, and turns fiery shades of orange and red in fall and winter.
This compact shrub stays under 3 feet tall, making it ideal for borders, foundations, and patio containers. From late spring to fall, itβs covered in small, fragrant white flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. Deer- and drought-resistant once established.
