Description

This Crape Myrtle hybrid is a popular tree which grows to 25' tall and 12' wide. It blooms with lavender pink flowers in the summer; deciduous leaves turn red in fall. It is mildew-resistant and does well in areas with hot summers. Crape Myrtles bloom on new wood so prune in winter/early spring to increase flowering. Smooth bark is cinnamon colored, peeling to reveal a light gray color.
