tx_flower_child said:Thanks, y'all. I appreciate your help. So is there actually a difference between Abelia x grandiflora and Glossy Abelia? I'd like to add it to my list and want to be accurate. If I had an actual camera as opposed to my iPhone (and if I didn't have glaucoma), I could do better pictures. How glossy is 'glossy'?


Glossy Abelia is just the common name for Abelia x grandiflora.
