About YouGarden, YouGarden Loropetulum 'Black Pearl' in 2L Pot

A plant for all seasons and all gardens, the Chinese Witch Hazel really is one of the most spectacular plants you can own. Quite a rarity in UK gardens, it is unlikely that your neighbours will have one, so you can be one of the first to grow it. Incredibly exotic looking, this highly prized beauty is actually very hardy and easy to grow. Its glorious, rich burgundy, oval-shaped leaves contrast superbly against any green foliage and act as a dramatic backdrop to its spectacular, vibrant pink flowers. Often likened to sea coral, the highly unusual ribbon-shaped petals explode from the centre just like a firework and completely smother the plant from February to April, just when you need an interest in your garden. As spectacular in a pot on your patio as in any border, Chinese Witch Hazel requires nothing more than an occasional trim to keep it in perfect shape. Specifications Supplied as an established plant in a 15cm pot, ready to plant out Ultimate height approx. 75cm (4ft) Availability: August to April Planting time: February to November Flowering time: February to April, (minor reflowering)September to October Top Tips Grow this beauty as a specimen plant to brighten up the winter garden. Care Information Best grown in a sheltered area where it can be covered if hard frost is forecast. Plant 'Black Pearl' in partial shade in a well-drained soil. Avoid very wet, cold spots. Low maintenance; simply prune out any weak growth or damaged branches after flowering. When planting, add mycorrhizal root fungi to the planting hole to help your plant establish well.
