The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

Abelias are popular shrubs for their vibrant foliage and remarkable long-lasting fragrant flowers, and Sunny Anniversary® Abelia PP#24,445 (Abelia x grandiflora 'Minduo1') is no exception! Its glossy, oval leaves populate its mounded nature with upright, gracefully arching stems to provide a rich backdrop for the flower buds that appear in mid-summer.
Those adorable buds will soon open to trumpet-shaped fragrant flowers, and will be swarmed by hungry bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds! Throughout the growing season, Silver Anniversary® is resplendent as it blooms and blooms, the flowers display splashes of yellow, pink, and orange that continue to provide their brilliant color well into early fall when the red stems and burgundy fall foliage shine!
Sunny Anniversary's one-of-a-kind blend of bright, floral colors extends into autumn for a stand-out display amid your other plantings, which by that time are preparing for a winter's rest! Your Sunny Anniversary® Abelia is a deciduous shrub with ornamental features, local deer tend to leave it alone and these flowering shrubs have few pest issues. Hardy throughout USDA planting zones 6 to 8, these 3-4 foot tall and wide accents!
Landscape Application:
These glossy mid-sized shrubs are especially showy with their arching cascading stems, long bloom time, and space-saving size! Gorgeous specimens and accents all on their own, Abelia look great as unexpected foundation plants, in mixed shrub borders, and as low hedges.

Beautiful for Cottage Gardens, hardy for Rock Gardens, and ideal for your pollinator border, and in wildlife habitat areas!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Plant this deciduous Abelia in full sun and some partial shade. About any type of well-drained soil and moderate moisture throughout the first year, but once established, Abelia can be fairly drought tolerant. Sunny Anniversary® Abelia grows naturally beautiful but is amenable to pruning in the late winter if you so desire. Apply a three-inch layer of mulch over the root system, but pull it back six inches from the stems, and reapply as needed. Deer-resistant and pest-free, these are incredibly hardy and easy-to-grow plants.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade
- Moderate to Low Moisture Needs
- Any Well-Drained Soil
- Prune Late Winter
- Deer & Pest Resistant
