Noted for its bright golden foliage, Caryopteris x clandonensis ‘Hint of Gold’ is a compact deciduous shrub of upright habit with intense violet flowers in late summer to fall. Borne atop woody stems clothed with extra large, serrated, vivid golden-yellow leaves, they are attractive to butterflies, bees and other beneficial insects.

Valued for its late season blossoms when few other shrubs are in bloom, this easy care shrub is a superb addition to any sunny garden. Perfect for small gardens or containers.
