Collection: Crape Myrtle

Summer Spectacle & Multi-Season Appeal

Crape myrtles are signature plants for warm-climate landscapes, delivering months of vibrant summer blooms, striking exfoliating bark, and brilliant fall color. From compact patio varieties to stately multi-trunk specimens, our selection includes disease-resistant cultivars in a spectrum of flower colors—offering reliable performance, architectural form, and extended seasonal interest.

Why Crape Myrtles Excel

• Extended bloom period: Profuse flower clusters in white, pink, red, or purple from early summer through fall
• Year-round structure: Sculptural branching, exfoliating bark in cinnamon and gray tones, and vibrant fall foliage
• Heat & drought tolerance: Thrives in full sun and tolerates dry conditions once established
• Size versatility: Dwarf varieties for borders, medium shrubs for mass plantings, and tree forms for specimens

Selection & Placement

Choose varieties based on mature size and flower color to suit your design intent. Dwarf cultivars work well in foundation beds, while larger tree forms excel as focal points or street trees. Plant in full sun for maximum bloom production. Pair with ornamental grasses, coneflowers, or evergreen shrubs for layered texture and contrast.

Care Essentials

Plant in well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Water regularly during establishment, then reduce frequency as plants mature. Prune in late winter to shape, remove crossing branches, and encourage vigorous new growth that produces the heaviest bloom. Avoid heavy topping, which creates weak growth and diminishes natural form. Mulch to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
