Abelia x grandiflora 'Kaleidoscope'

A constantly renewed kaleidoscope, much appreciated by gardeners.

This evergreen shrub with variegated foliage, light green and golden yellow in spring, is coming into young orange coloured shoots turning to scarlet red at the end of summer up to winter. These shades can vary according to the position, climate and type of soil.
Its growth is dense and even.
The lightly fragrant white flowers, from June to September-October, stand in beautiful contrast to the purple stems.
Must be protected in regions with cold winters.
