Plant Profile

Abelia 'Kaleidoscope' has been selected for its unique ever changing foliage colours throughout many seasons.

The new variegated growth emerges bright yellow with a light green centre throughout spring gradually turning to golden yellow with a deep green centre into the summer months. By autumn this combination turns to a bright orange to fiery red throughout the winter months extending until the early spring.

Abelia Kaleidoscope unlike others within the genus does not form long branching runaway shoots from the base.

Cultural Care
