Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum is a dwarf, bushy, compact, neat, evergreen shrub of the witch hazel family, with small, oval, reddish to purple-green leaves and clusters of lightly aromatic, pink, spidery flowers on twisted petals blooming in spring. Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum prefers fertile, humus-rich, slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soil. Doesn’t like waterlogged and shallow chalk soils. It thrives in full sun to partial shade. It looks best when grown in sunny, sheltered, frost-free areas. Too much shade reduces flowering. It can withstand some frost, but has to be sheltered from harsh, drying winter winds. Adaptable to coastal and urban conditions. Generally, pest-free and disease-free. Low maintenance shrub, doesn’t require pruning. Loropetalum 'Fire Dance' is an attractive, compact shrub, perfect for cottage, urban, woodland, and coastal gardens. It is great as a specimen plant or planted in groups. Excellent for foundation plantings, beds and borders, and low, dividing hedges. Suitable for growing in containers.
