'Mardi Gras' Abelia

(Abelia x 'Mardi Gras')

Introduced by Monrovia Growers, 'Mardi Gras' is grown for its colorful PINK, GREEN & WHITE leaves which remain on the plants year-round most years. In extremely cold winters, plants may drop about 1/4 of their leaves.

 

Pink buds open to FRAGRANT, bell-shaped WHITE flowers in late summer until frost.

 

Plants mature at only 2-3' tall by 3-4' wide. Expect 6-8" of growth a year. Space plants about 3' apart.

 

Plant in sun to light shade.
