Vibrant Scarlet-Red Flowers on Compact Upright Form

'Colorama Scarlet' is a medium growing, upright colorful deciduous shrub or small tree that reaches 10 to 15 feet tall and spreads 6 to 10 feet wide. Vibrant scarlet-red flowers bloom from summer through fall, providing months of brilliant color in the landscape. The compact upright growth habit makes this variety perfect for smaller landscapes where you want the beauty of crape myrtle without overwhelming the space. Best grown in full sun, Colorama Scarlet delivers reliable performance with minimal maintenance once established. The continuous blooms attract butterflies and hummingbirds while the attractive exfoliating bark provides winter interest.
