Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum Sparkling Sangria™ (Chinese Fringe Flower) is a large, bushy evergreen shrub of rounded to spreading habit with rich reddish-purple leaves which retain their color and persist all year-round. In spring, it produces abundant clusters of bright red, spidery flowers, each with narrow, twisted, inch-long petals. The vibrant blossoms stand out against the dark evergreen foliage. Making a bold statement in the landscape, this striking evergreen shrub is perfect as an accent or in mass plantings. It makes a lovely hedge along the entryway and looks great in perennial borders.

  • Grows up to 10 ft. tall and wide (300 cm).
  • A full sun to part shade lover, this plant is easily grown in humus-rich, fertile, moist, well-drained soils. Best flower production and leaf color in full sun, although this plant appreciates some afternoon shade. Shelter from cold winds and provide winter protection.
  • Virtually pest and disease free.
  • Extremely versatile, the Chinese Fringe Flower may be used as a specimen plant or in small groups. Perfect for foundation plantings, beds, and borders, hedges and screens, or containers.
  • Little pruning is required except for the removal of unsightly shoots and deadheading unless some shaping is required.
  • Propagate by semi-ripe cuttings in summer with bottom heat
  • Native to China, Southeast Asia, and Japan
