Caryopteris clandonensis ‘Summer Sorbet’ is a compact deciduous shrub grown for its attractive variegated foliage and late-season flowers. The fresh green leaves are edged and marbled with creamy yellow, creating a bright, decorative effect from spring onwards. In late summer and early autumn, clusters of clear blue flowers appear along the stems, standing out crisply against the light-toned foliage and attracting bees and other pollinators. With a naturally tidy, rounded habit, this variety is ideal for sunny borders, containers, and mixed planting schemes where foliage interest and seasonal colour are equally important.
