This sophisticated, ‘ever-bronze’ Loropetalum combines striking foliage and white flowers reminiscent of its close witch hazel brethren. The compact ‘Ruby Snow’ is perfect for smaller gardens and containers and often benefits from a second flush of flowers in late summer and early autumn. - Garden care: Requires minimal pruning, but lightly trim after flowering to encourage bushy growth. Protect from frost damage with a double layer of horticultural fleece during sub-zero conditions and apply a thick layer of organic mulch in autumn to help insulate the roots.
