Description

Loropetalum chinense

A dwarf weeping variety of Loropetalum, known as a ground cover reaching 30cm tall x 1.2m wide. It produces the same gorgeous rich burgundy purple foliage with bright pink flowers just in a smaller form! Frost and drought tolerant when established. This will stand out in any garden especially mixed with bright lime green plants and grey foliage or silver plants.

Pyrus calleryana 'Winter Glow'

The only evergreen ornamental pear currently on the market, making it a highly sought after specimen tree. • Spring blossoms on semi bare branches • Ideal for screening or as a shade tree • Green glossy leaves with a silvered backing Everscreen Pears will only retain leaves in warmer climates. Cool climate areas such as rural Victoria are likely to see leaf drop in the winter but usually for only a period of up to 5 weeks. In cool climates it the Everscreen will get an autumnal colouring prior to leaf drop. For more information on Ornamental Pears see our Pyrus - Ornamental Pear Factsheet
