Product Description

Abelia × grandiflora 'BRMGold' PBR, commonly known as Abelia Lemon & Lime, is a compact evergreen to semi-evergreen shrub admired for its vibrant variegated foliage. The striking lime-green leaves edged with creamy-yellow margins provide year-round colour, making this variety an excellent choice for borders, low hedges, feature planting, and decorative containers.

Throughout the warmer months, the shrub produces masses of small, lightly fragrant white flowers that contrast beautifully against the colourful foliage while attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Its naturally dense, rounded growth habit makes it ideal for creating neat, low-maintenance hedges or adding colour and texture to mixed garden beds.

Supplied in a 20 cm nursery pot, this healthy, well-established shrub offers instant impact and continues to perform beautifully with minimal maintenance.

Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
