Crape Myrtle Trees

Lagerstroemia indica is a multi-stemmed deciduous tree or large shrub known for its upright, vase-shaped habit and spectacular summer blooms. It features leathery green leaves that transition to vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red in autumn. Beyond its flowers, the tree is prized for its smooth, exfoliating bark that provides year-round interest. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, showing excellent heat and drought tolerance once established in the landscape.
