abelia x grandiflora or a red corkscrew hazel or a fuschisa

[BarrelOfOtters]

Right next to the house, by a white wall. Sheltered corner, bright sun in the afternoon in the summer, shaded in winter.

I've got a choice of the three above. I'd like something for the bees, some fragrance ideally. So was leaning towards the abelia but wonder if it might be a bit dull?

I was at a garden centre on Saturday looking at an Abelia kaleidoscope (I think), variegated leaves, really stunning. I've already got an Abelia in a pot. I can't remember the variety, it has lots of pink fragrant flowers and some of the foliage is reddish tinted. It seems to be at least partially evergreen and practically unkillable. It's been in the same pot for years, I'm always forgetting to water it and I rarely feed it. The bees love it. The growth is a bit scruffy, but if I looked after it better it might be a bit smarter looking.

That sounds positive thank you. Mine has been in slightly too small a pot for a while and not fine much....
