Confetti® Abelia - 3 Gallon

Colorful Foliage and Delicate Blooms in a Compact, Easy-Care Shrub

The Confetti Abelia (Abelia × grandiflora 'Confetti') is a low-growing, semi-evergreen shrub prized for its striking variegated foliage and graceful white-pink flowers. New growth emerges with soft pink tones, maturing into a mix of creamy white and green leaves that add year-round interest. From late spring through fall, it produces tubular, lightly fragrant blooms that attract butterflies and pollinators.

Compact and easy to manage, Confetti Abelia is perfect for borders, foundations, rock gardens, and containers. It thrives in heat and humidity, tolerates drought once established, and requires very little maintenance—making it a landscaping favorite for small spaces or mass plantings.
