Twist of Lime Variegated Abelia

13 May, 2010 Get Growing

Garden Debut's Twist of Lime has bright yellow leaves with green centers when young, maturing later in the season to ivory and green. It produces blooms of fragrant, white-tinged-pink clusters of trumpet-shaped flowers (up to 5/8 in. long), which appear from late spring to fall. Dusty pink “ruffs” of sepals last after the petals are gone. This Abelia hybrid is a rounded, spreading, multi-stemmed shrub in the honeysuckle family. It typically grows to a mature height of about 4½ ft., especially in Zones 6-10.
