Description
If you love Crape Myrtles for their bright flowers and long bloom season during summer, you’re gonna absolutely love even longer-blooming Enduring Summer Crape Myrtles. We think they should’ve named this series “Enduring Fall” because the specimens in our gardens bloom from early summer right up to frost!
This is the distinctive, single-trunk version of the Enduring Summer Red Crape Myrtle, a prolific blooming, repeat flowering semi-dwarf Crape Myrtle that produces vibrant, scarlet-red flowers all summer long and into fall. With a light trimming in late summer the plants will rebloom to frost! The flowers stand out nicely against the handsome, glossy, dark green foliage on a tightly rounded canopy. As a shrub it typically grows to 4 to 5 feet tall and wide, but this tree form will grow 7 to 9 feet tall and 4 to 5 feet wide. Its smaller size makes it a great accent tree for smaller garden spaces, home foundation plantings and containers. Two can be used to frame an entryway.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing to 7 to 9 feet tall and 4 to 5 feet wide, the single-trunk tree form Enduring Summer Red Crape Myrtle is an ideal accent tree for smaller garden spaces, landscape borders, home foundation plantings and containers. Two can be used to accentuate an entryway. Also makes a very colorful hedge and is spectacular in groupings. A fine addition to red theme gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 7 feet or more apart for space between plants
Growing Preferences
Enduring Summer Crape Myrtle is very easy to grow. It is not picky about soil type provided the soil is well-drained. A moist but well-drained soil of average fertility is preferred. Full sun is preferred and results in heavier flower production. Light shade is tolerated but flowering will be diminished in more shade. Has shown excellent resistance to powdery mildew and is quite drought tolerant when established. Can be trimmed in late summer to encourage heavier blooming through fall. Can also be pruned in late winter for shaping purposes.
