Abelia x grandiflora 'Confetti'

This compact party-shrub has glossy green leaves with white variegation and prominent pink hues; tidy, mounded habit and tubular pinkish-white flowers make this shrub perfect for compact areas with medium light.

Confetti Glossy Abelia will grow to be about 3 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 4 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 30 years. This shrub does best in full sun to partial shade. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid.
