I have 2 kinds of purple that are all over my yard for great color. This one is Tibouchina urvilleana, and I just love it. It is still blooming now! In the summer it is covered in blooms, now they are much sparser. This winter we had 3 nights of frost. It did not even get touched, though most of my brugs leaves got fried! One year we had a really bad winter, it died down to the ground but came back. I prefer this in the tree shape.

Too keep compact in growth it likes a good pruning in spring.

This color is off, it is true purple.
