With its cascading nature, the Abelia Edward Goucher shrub is a great choice to use as a vibrant shrub border, foundation plant, or informal or formal hedge. It was introduced in 1911 by Edward Goucher of the United States department of agriculture where it got its name.

This evergreen shrub offers months of blooms. From spring to fall it produces clusters of delicate pink and lavender tubular-shaped flowers that are slightly aromatic. Foliage arises maroon and fades into dark green leaves, casting a reddish tint to the plant during active growth.

The green foliage darkens during the winter, but the shrubs generally remain full during the cold months with gracefully arching branches that are funnel-shaped. The fall-colored shrub exhibits erosion control to help with your landscaping needs.

Happy with my order

Well packaged, healthy, full plants. Planted a month ago and they're doing fine. Hard to find locally for me. I saw one in a local nursery, but the one I received from Perfect Plants looked much healthier.
