How can you root!
I have a Loropetalum which has grown rather larger than I thought it would and I would like to know if you can root any of the limbs by cutting off new growth,or burying a limb while still attached to the bush.

I had some huge lorapedalum in my backyard on either side of the pergola. They were a foot or more higher than the pergola and equally as wide. My landscaper cut them back to about a foot tall. They will survive severe pruning and come back strong and healthy. We have kept ours trimmed to the height we like and I am so happy we didn't have them removed. As they were growing back in we only trimmed the branches that shot up higher than the others. So that the didn't look scraggly and looked nice and full. In the front yard, we have planted a variety that only grows 3-4 ft tall. Lorapedalum come in several varieties with very different growth habits. Our large ones were inherited from the prior owners but I love the other varieties we've planted. So, go for it and prune away. They are hard to kill and manageable with consistent pruning.
