Green leaves emerge with a faint pink cast before darkening to a fantastic dark green on ‘Rose Creek’ Abelia. 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.
