Purple Magic Crepe Myrtle

Availability: Available for pickup at our Broussard garden center.

Crape myrtles are made for South Louisiana summers, blooming through the heat. Plant in full sun in soil that drains well and water through the first summer. Once settled they handle heat and dry spells well. Pick a variety sized for your space so it never needs hard pruning.

Come see it at Cane Row Nursery, 1500 S Bernard Rd in Broussard. Our staff is happy to help you pick the right spot for it in your South Louisiana yard.
