Why Choose the Abelia Kaleidoscope?
Key Features:
Year-Round Colour Display: This standout variety offers a continuous display of colour, with foliage tones shifting dramatically with the seasons—from spring golds and greens to fiery autumnal reds.
Drought Tolerant and Hardy: Exceptionally tough once established, it thrives in Australian gardens and tolerates dry spells with ease, making it ideal for low-maintenance or water-wise landscapes.
Compact, Non-Spreading Form: Naturally bushy and compact, Kaleidoscope maintains its neat shape without forming long runaway stems, unlike many other abelias.
Versatile and Decorative: Perfect for containers, small hedges, borders, or mass planting. Its colourful foliage pairs well with other plants and adds brightness to any position.
Low Care Requirements: Grows well in full sun to part shade and needs minimal pruning. A light tidy-up in early spring and an occasional trim will keep it looking its best year-round.
