Twist Of Vanilla Abelia

The Twist of Vanilla™ Abelia is a neat, compact mounding plant growing no more than 3 feet tall and wide. It has glossy evergreen leaves that are edged with a slender line of white, creating a cool and sophisticated look that everyone loves. The variegation lasts through winter with little or no pink developing. Pure white flowers from mid-summer all through fall accentuate the ice-cream coolness of this plant, which glows out across your garden, even at dusk and in partial shade.

• Cool and sophisticated green leaves with white edges
• Pure white flowers from summer through fall
• Neat compact form is perfect in smaller gardens and for edging
• The perfect abelia for partial shade
• Fragrant blooms attract butterflies and even hummingbirds

Both full sun and partial shade are perfect for the Twist of Vanilla™ Abelia which looks great in afternoon or evening shade, standing out when other plants fade into the shadows. It grows well in any well-drained soil, and it is drought resistant once established, although some water will keep it lush and growing well. It can be trimmed, or simply left to grow naturally – either way it is easy to care for, free of pests and diseases, and normally left alone by deer.
