Caryopteris x clandonensis 'Hint of Gold' is a stunning, deciduous shrub prized for its vibrant foliage and late-season blooms. Known for its soft, golden-yellow leaves that age to a silvery-green, it adds a warm, radiant glow to borders and large containers from March to November. In late summer to early autumn, it produces clusters of aromatic, light blue flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Growing to a height and spread of about 1m, 'Hint of Gold' is perfect for sunny borders, mixed plantings, or as a standout specimen plant. It thrives in well-drained, moderately fertile soil and is drought-tolerant once established, making it a low-maintenance option for many gardens. Given the Award of Garden Merit for outstanding performance in the garden, Caryopteris x clandonensis 'Hint of Gold' is resistant to pests and diseases, ensuring reliable performance year after year. The contrasting gold foliage and blue flowers make it an ideal choice for adding colour and texture to late-season gardens, providing valuable interest when many plants are fading.
