pink loropetalum

Question

My gardener has pruned most of the lower branches and left a view of empty branches. Will Loropetalum sprout on the lower bare branches?

Answer 1

Yes, in fact, these can handle very severe pruning. It is often necessary to prune heavily up to twice a year. These will quickly grow back. This article will give you some more information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/shrubs/loropetalum/pruning-overgrown-loropetalum.htm
