Does besting cool, well-drained spots -avoid wet roots in winter.Top Tips- Avoid full sun and wet feet in winter.Care Guide- Although hardy to -10°C, young leaves can be damaged by frost, although they will grow back. Provide protection if frost threatens to prevent damage.- Grow in a sheltered area in sun or light dappled shade. South to south-west facing is ideal.- Loropetalum prefers a slightly acidic, humus-rich soil that retains moisture so add ericaceous compost to the planting hole or grow in a container.- Keep well-watered.- Like clematis, Chinese witch hazel likes to have cool roots, so grow it were the roots are likely to be shaded, such as among perennials or cover the area with a thick mulch of gravel.- In the colder parts of the country (i.e. where temperatures are likely to drop below -10C), Loropetalum should be treated as tender and kept in a large terracotta container that can be brought in for the winter.Planting Time:February - NovemberFlowering Time:October - MarchAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.

Graptopetalum are perennial succulent plants and native to Mexico and Arizona. They grow in a rosette. they are not frost hardy but in frost-free regions, make excellent rockery plants. This variety ‘purpureum’ is an un-usual species with thick fleshy cupped triangular leaves coloured maroon with a purple reverse. This creates a unique looking colouring on its leaves, a small but striking addition to any rare plant collectors. Like most succulents it likes to be dry, in well-drained soil. Light and Water Keep this plant in direct sunlight for best growth, it can also do well in bright indirect sunlight too. Water when the soil is fully drained, check the soil with your finger to see if it is dry several inches down or if the leaves are starting to look shrivelled. Overwatering can cause root rot so make sure it drains completely before watering again.
