Abelia Francis Mason

Abelia Francis Mason, also known as the Golden Abelia​​​​​​, is an attractive semi-evergreen shrub that features a mosaic of yellow and green leaves on gracefully arching reddish-brown stems. Trumpet-shaped pinkish-white flowers bloom profusely in summer and early autumn. 

The thicket-like habit means that the plant is able to be clipped into a hedge or it is an ideal choice for borders, mixed shrubbery, or standalone specimens in landscape design. It thrives in well-drained soils and prefers a position where it can receive full sun to part shade, ensuring the most vibrant leaf coloration. While it boasts a naturally elegant shape, light pruning in late spring helps maintain its compact form and stimulates robust new growth. Frost hardy.

Grows 1.5 meters in height and spread.
