Agreed, Glossy abelia (Abelia X grandiflora) is a great flowering
shrub. Most people don't even realize it has such lovely blooms,
because they shear it into a meatball! Butterflies and hummers
love it, and it has a lovely scent.
I'm surprised it makes it in zone 6 winter. I thought it only hardy
to zone 7.
Even when it is not in flower, the pink calyces give it the look of
still being in bloom.

Abelia X grandiflora is not Potentilla.
