Caryopteris clandonensis ‘Hint of Gold’ is a compact, deciduous shrub that combines softly coloured foliage with vibrant late-season flowers. Its fresh green leaves are subtly flushed with golden-yellow tones, adding gentle brightness to borders without overpowering neighbouring plants. From late summer into early autumn, clusters of clear blue flowers appear along the stems, creating an attractive contrast and providing an important nectar source for bees and pollinators. Naturally neat and well balanced, this variety is ideal for sunny borders, mixed planting schemes, and smaller gardens where controlled growth and extended seasonal interest are valued.
