Loropetalum chinense aka Chinese Fringe Flower

Loropetalum chinense, also known as loropetalum, Chinese fringe flower, and strap flower, is an evergreen plant with horizontal branches and alternately arranged, ovate leaves that have a slightly abrasive feel. There are two forms of L. chinense; a white- (to pale-yellow-) flowering green-leafed variety and a pink-flowering variety with leaves that vary from bronze-red to olive-green or burgundy, depending on selection and growing conditions. The pink-flowering variety is popular as an ornamental plant, grown for its prolific clusters of flowers and deeply colored foliage that may contain various green, copper, purple, and red tones. L. chinense grows best in fertile, slightly acidic soil in full sun for deepest foliage color and is hardy down to -15 degrees Celsius (5 degrees Fahrenheit). Chinese Fringe Flower, a relative of L. chinense, is a relatively rare houseplant that is easy to grow and needs regular watering to thrive. It does best in long-lasting, direct light and should be less than 1 foot from a window. Chinese Fringe Flower likes soil that is well-draining. Both L. chinense and Chinese Fringe Flower are native to China, Northeastern Thailand, Japan, and Taiwan.
