Loropetalum chinese 'Plum Delight' is a fast growing shrub that can reach 12' high and 6'-8' wide. It is upright and spreading, usually wider than high, with long arching branches. New leaf growth is green with pink accents. Flowers are very showy, with 4 narrow fringe-like pink petals, clustered at the branch tips to form pom-poms. It blooms heavily in spring with sporadic blooms throughout the year. This plant needs well-drained, moist soil and full to partial sun.
