Re: Chinese Fringe Flower
For anyone wanting one of these, the Big Green Shed frequently have these for sale as garden plants, usually less then $20 depending on size.

Re: Chinese Fringe Flower
Spring flowering is over so there is a wait until autumn until the next time for a decent photo.

Re: Chinese Fringe Flower
Any update on this one?
I've inherited a long suffering plant and any tips would be appreciated.
Mum gave it to us & "The Boss" planted it in his shed garden, transplanted/relocated it last year and, when it didn't take that well was going to bin it, so I rescued, root and top pruned it and it is now recovering in a bonsai pot.
I notice in other posts here that it is used as a hedge - does it shoot back on old wood? Mine is a bit "sad literati" (leggy with the foliage on top) at the moment and I'm hoping for backbudding.
