Fringe flower

A species of Chinese witch hazel, also known as Redleaf loropetalum

Botanical name: Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum

Genus: Chinese witch hazel

Description

This evergreen shrub is used in outdoor landscaping. It flowers in early spring. Some varieties of fringe flower grow green leaves and white flowers. A more popular maroon-leafed variety hit the US market in the 1980s, which flowers in eye-catching pinks or reds.

Garden Use

The fringe flower is an extremely versatile evergreen shrub - it can be planted as a border plant, in containers, used in landscaping, in mass-plantings, or as a focal plant. However, it is most commonly grown in woodland gardens and considered a go-to plant for growing in this setting. Most fringe flower varieties will grow between 3 to 5 m in height. Easy to grow and requiring minimal maintenance, the fringe flower produces colorful, bold, and fragrant blooms in the late winter and early spring, making it a valued shrub in colder gardens.
