Sunshine Daydream Abelia is a rounded evergreen shrub with splendid tricolor foliage. New growth emerges dark pink with green and white variegation and softens to dreamy pink, golden yellow, and green hues as they mature. Fragrant white flowers bloom on new wood in summer and mature to rosy tones. Flowers best in full sun and rich, moist, well-drained soils.
