Lagerstroemia Black Diamond 'Lavender Lace'
Lagerstroemia Black Diamond 'Lavender Lace' is a striking deciduous shrub combining dramatic near-black foliage with an abundance of rich lavender-purple flowers. The dark leaves emerge in spring and retain their intense colouring through summer, creating a superb contrast with the frilly blooms.
Flowering through summer, 'Lavender Lace' provides bold colour and architectural interest in warm, sheltered gardens. Its compact, tidy habit makes it an excellent specimen shrub for sunny borders and courtyards, while established plants can also be grown successfully in large containers.
Best grown in a warm, sheltered position in full sun with well-drained soil, 'Lavender Lace' benefits from the protection of a south-facing wall or fence in colder areas. The foliage develops rich purple tones in autumn before falling with the first frosts.
