Fringe Flower

Loropetalum Iceberry produces cream-white flowers during spring which then result in large, ice-white berries in summer. Graceful, arching branches bear dark green leaves with new leaves emerging a bronze colour as it grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide. Loropetalum Iceberry is commonly included in a mixed planting, added to a cottage garden, planted around outdoor living areas, or trimmed into a hedge.

How to grow a Loropetalum Iceberry hedge

A Loropetalum Iceberry hedge is achieved by spacing the plants 40-50 cm apart. They can be staked for additional support which will help the hedge grow quicker. To achieve the best Loropetalum Iceberry hedge, lightly trim the plants in spring and again in autumn. The hedge is typically kept at 1-1.3 m tall.

Loropetalum Iceberry pruning

Loropetalum Iceberry benefits from light pruning to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Pruning is best done in late spring or early summer after the main flush of flowers has finished. Avoid heavy pruning in autumn or winter, as this can reduce flowering the following season. Simply trim back any leggy or unruly branches, and remove any dead or damaged wood. If the plant has become too large or misshapen, it can handle a more substantial trim, though this may temporarily reduce blooming. Regular light pruning helps keep the plant tidy and promotes vibrant new foliage, enhancing its rich colours.

Loropetalum Iceberry care

Loropetalum Iceberry is a beautiful shrub that requires specific care to thrive. It flourishes in full sun to partial shade. It prefers moist but well-drained soil that is fertile and rich in humus. Good drainage is crucial to prevent root rot and this cannot be emphasised enough. While it can handle moderate frost, young plants should be protected in colder regions. Similarly, shelter from wind is also recommended. Feed it with tree fertiliser in early spring before new growth begins. If shaping is needed, it's best to prune after flowering. Generally, this variety is relatively pest and disease-free. However, keep an eye out for scale insects and treat with an insecticide if levels are high.
