Loropetalum Plum Delight

Loropetalum chinense 'Plum Delight', often referred to as the 'Purple Chinese Fringe Flower' is a rounded evergreen shrub, with ornamental foliage that emerges plum purple and ages to deep purple. The striking magenta-pink flowers smother the whole plant and appear mostly during spring and will also spot flower throughout the year.

Plum Delight adds great colour contrast to any garden and with its dense and bushy growth, it is a wonderful choice to use for hedges, privacy screens, along drives, pathways, rock gardens, or around pools. 

For optimal growth, Loropetalum chinense 'Plum Delight' prefers well-drained soil and thrives in positions with full sun to partial shade. Once established, it's known for its drought tolerance, ensuring it remains a low-maintenance yet high-impact addition to gardens.

Larger growing than Loropetalum China Pink; Loropetalum Plum Delight reaches a mature height of about 2 meters and the same wide.
