Suntastic Peach Glossy Abelia

Suntastic Peach Glossy Abelia (Abelia x grandiflora nana 'Suntastic Peach') is a compact, golden-foliaged dwarf abelia with irresistible warm-toned charm. New growth emerges in vivid shades of peachy gold and soft orange, maturing to lime green in summer before returning to rich amber-bronze in fall. This tidy, low-growing cultivar blooms profusely with small white-blush tubular flowers that attract bees and hummingbirds from summer through frost.

Developed from Professional Grade root systems with an professional growing heritage, Suntastic Peach excels in compact garden spaces, low borders, container groupings, and along pathways where its luminous foliage can be appreciated up close. Its dwarf, dense mounding habit requires little pruning and remains attractive through all seasons. It performs well in full sun, where the golden tones intensify most dramatically, and tolerates part shade with ease.
