loropetalum , Chinese Fringe plant. Pretty bright pink fring-y flowers in the spring and fall. I hack away at mine but keeping a wild natural look to it instead of trimmed up and polished. I have seen them get as high as 12 feet tall! But to keep them tight and compact, trim as you would any other bush. In order to keep mine at the height I want they will eventually have that polished pruned looked to it.
