Jazz Hands Velvet Chinese Fringe-Flower

The Jazz Hands Velvet maintains its deep burgundy-purple foliage throughout the entire season, providing consistent color rather than fading to green.

This variety is excellent for containers due to its compact, mounded habit. Just ensure your pot has adequate drainage and is large enough to accommodate its mature size of 3-5 feet.

This shrub is hardy in USDA zones 7-10. If you live in a region with colder winters, it will likely not survive outdoors year-round and should be treated as an annual or kept in a container that can be moved indoors.

While it can tolerate some light shade, it performs best and produces the most vibrant flowers and foliage color when planted in full sun, which means at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.

Not really. It has a naturally tidy, mounded growth habit, so it requires very little maintenance. You can lightly trim it after it finishes flowering in the spring if you want to encourage a specific shape or size.
