These flowering trees are valued for their long-lasting summer color, fast growth, and relatively low-maintenance care once established. They can be grown as small shrubs with regular pruning or allowed to develop into larger ornamental trees, potentially reaching up to 20 feet tall under suitable growing conditions.

🌼 Growing Information

Sunlight: Plant in a location that receives full sun for the best flowering. Partial shade may be tolerated, but reduced sunlight can result in fewer blooms.

Soil: Use fertile, well-draining soil. If planting in containers, choose a pot with drainage holes and quality potting mix.

Watering: After planting, water thoroughly and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged while the roots establish. Once established, crepe myrtles are generally more tolerant of dry conditions.

Planting: Since these plants ship bare root, unpack and plant them promptly after arrival. Keep the roots from drying out before planting, position the roots in the soil, and water thoroughly.

Fertilizer: Once the plants are established, apply a balanced tree and shrub fertilizer according to the product label directions. Avoid excessive fertilizer, which can encourage leafy growth at the expense of flowering.

Pruning: Prune during the dormant season if needed to shape the plant or remove dead branches. Avoid severe topping, which can damage the plant's natural form.

Dormancy: Crepe myrtles may lose their leaves and appear dormant during colder months. This is a normal part of their seasonal growth cycle.

💡 Care Tip

For strong growth and abundant pink flowers, provide plenty of sunlight and well-drained soil. Because these are young bare-root cuttings, give them extra attention during the establishment period. Keep the roots moist before planting and water consistently until new growth develops.
