Radiance Abelia stands out against other abelia varieties because of its low maintenance, outstanding foliage, blooms, and multi season interest. New growth is medium green with creamy white margins, while the more aged foliage is a striking silver green with creamy yellow margins. Not only is the foliage beautiful, but the stems themselves provide a great contrast with their vivid crimson pigment. An abundance of white, lightly fragrant flowers are produced during late spring to fall. These flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds.

How to Care for the Plant
Water
Deeply water when newly planted and once or twice weekly during establishment. Once established, only minimal watering is needed and generally only during extended periods of dry, hot weather.
Pruning
Abelias do not generally require pruning, but if pruning is desired winter is best.
Fertilizer
A fertilizer for flowering shrubs like Rhododendrons will work great for Abelias. The best times to fertilize are early spring and/or early summer.
