Abelia grandiflora, have attractive foliage, which partially accounts for their longtime use in the landscape. The evergreen plant has red foliage throughout the summer, becoming even deeper and more brilliant in autumn through winter. Flowers offer several bursts of bloom from spring to fall, with clusters of fragrant and frilly pink and white tubular flowers. In colder areas of the country, the glossy abelia plant is considered semi evergreen, as it may lose half its leaves in cold winters. Little is needed with regards to the care of these shrubs, though regular watering improves performance. This glossy abelia plant is tolerant of drought and summer heat once established in the landscape. Abelia care for this cultivar includes early spring pruning.
