Sizzling Pink Loropetalum as Bonsai
Comments (4)Loropetalum is zone 8 hardy, so I think it's used to fairly short winters; however, I worry about two things: 4 hours of morning sun may not be enough, and 70 degrees constant may not be cool enough to keep it semi-dormant before it goes back outside. I'd watch for warning signs: leaves yellowing or dropping, new growth coming out weak and leggy, and let us know. Jim...See Morehave: cuttings: variegated boxwood, purple loropetalum, etc.

Comments (3)I have a smallish loropetalum called Chang's Ruby - nice purple leaves right now - it does tend to green out later in the season. There are purple leaved barberries if you don't mind the thorns. Chocolate eupatorium gets to 3-4 feet and has chocolaty brownish red leaves with white flowers in fall. It dies to the ground in DFW area in winter - don't know what it would do in zone 9. I've heard it can be invasive as in reseeding like crazy, but it hasn't happened in my garden....yet! Black Pearl Capsicum annuem pepper has dark leaves with neat green to black to red round peppers througout the season. Mine is perennial in a pot protected in winter, but might do fine in the ground in your zone 9....See Moreaust
