Green leaves emerge with a faint pink cast before darkening to a fantastic dark green on ‘Rose Creek’ Abelia – Abelia x ‘Rose Creek’. The stems retain their pinkish-purple hue all season long. In the spring, white flowers dot the shrub, and leave bright pink sepals behind. Come winter, the leaves take on a deep purple hue. Deer resistant, pollinator friendly and semi-evergreen, this shrub is a must-have in your landscape.
Rose Creek Abelia Care
Plant ‘Rose Creek’ Abelia in amended soil with good drainage. Until established, water the shrub regularly. Prune in the spring before leaf emergence when necessary.
Rose Creek Abelia Spacing
For foundational plantings, plant at least 5 feet apart, on center. If planting a hedge, plan about 3 to 4 feet apart, center-to- center.
