Chinese Fringe Flower

Loropetalum chinense 'Rubrum'

'Rubrum' earns its place in the garden through the striking interplay of its deep burgundy-purple evergreen foliage and the raspberry-pink, ribbon-like flowers that smother the branches in spring, with often a secondary flush in autumn. It works equally well as a bold specimen, a loose informal hedge, or a rich foliage contrast beside silver and chartreuse plantings.
