Abelias

Abelias could well no longer be Abelias if botanists prevail, but for the time being they are. Abelia chinensis is mid-summer flowering with fragrant pale pink, tubular flowers in large clusters, which are extremely attractive to butterflies. Although lacking the glossiness of A. grandiflora it is still an attractive shrub. Completely hardy, for full sun or part shade.

Leycesteria Gold Leaf

Leycesteria Gold Leaf is a seed raised form and is not the patented one. It is similar in habit to the species Leycesteria formosa, but a little les vigorous, and the leaves are a deep gold colour with red tinges. The foliage is a good contrast to the purple bracts around the flowers.
