Twist of Lime Abelia

Twist of Lime AbeliaTwist of Lime Abelia: "This pastel color will never go out of style.Love it or hate it - the 80 s preppy scene made an indelible mark on the culture. The popped up collars on polo shirts - chinos with dress shoes - but no socks - embroidered  animals on grown up clothes. Some things were good and have stood the test of time. Others not so much. One thing the preppy look taught us - though - was that pastels never go out of style and look good in any situation.Take pink and green - for instance. Classic preppy color combo. Twist of Lime Abelia - Abelia X grandiflora Hopley s - puts a fresh spin on this color duo and will dress your garden in cool - soft color all year.Low-maintenance and sunny this big - bright shrub stands out from the crowd with lemon and lime colored leaves and pastel pink scented trumpet-shaped flowers. It reaches 4-5 tall and looks great on its own or massed in your beds and borders."
