Abelia grandiflora Mauve

Medium evergreen shrub with dense, glossy foliage on slightly arching branches. Young foliage turns bronze in Autumn and small, fragrant mauve bell-shaped flowers appear in abundance in Summer. Ornamental red sepals remain on the shrub when flowers fade adding to this shrub's appeal. Great for informal hedging, pots or as a stand alone specimen. Grows to 1.8m tall x 1.5m wide.
