Abelia × grandiflora is a hybrid species of flowering plant in the honeysuckle family Caprifoliaceae, raised by hybridising A. chinensis with A.

[1] It is a deciduous or semi-evergreen multistemmed shrub with rounded, spreading, or gracefully arching branches to 1 to 1.8 m (3.3 to 5.9 ft) tall.

The fragrant flowers are produced in clusters, white, tinged pink, bell-shaped, to 2 cm long.

"Abelia", the common name and genus name, honors Clarke Abel, physician and naturalist who collected seeds and plants on a British expedition to China in 1817.

[2] Abelia × grandiflora was first raised in 1886 at the Rovelli nursery at Pallanza (now Verbania), on Lake Maggiore in Italy.
