 or susceptibility to blight or disease. It is upright in its habit, 

 with glossy, round foliage, and fills out even fuller at the bottom 

 than does the California Privet. 18 to 24 inches tall, at 12 for

 you want something fine for hedge planting. The Abelia is 

 only hardy south of Kentucky, but superb for Southern growing.
