Chang's Ruby Loropetalum

Add bold, long-lasting color to the landscape with Chang’s Ruby Loropetalum (Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum ‘Chang’s Ruby’). This evergreen shrub is prized for its deep burgundy to purple foliage and bright pink, ribbon-like blooms that appear heavily in spring, with occasional flowering at other times of the year.

Its dense, rounded habit makes Chang’s Ruby a versatile choice for foundation plantings, low hedges, borders, mass plantings, and container gardens. It performs well in Metro Atlanta landscapes and creates striking contrast when planted alongside green evergreens, soft grasses, or light-colored flowering plants.

Sold in a 3-gallon container. Plant color, size, and fullness naturally vary by season and nursery availability.
