Crape Myrtle (Lagerstroemia) in a #7 nursery container, approximately 6 gallons in size. Crape myrtles are among the most popular flowering trees and shrubs for warm climates, prized for their long-lasting summer blooms, attractive exfoliating bark, and exceptional heat and drought tolerance once established.

These deciduous trees and large shrubs produce abundant clusters of crinkled flowers in shades ranging from white to pink, red, and purple, typically blooming from midsummer through early fall. Fall foliage often turns vibrant shades of orange, red, and yellow before leaf drop. The smooth, peeling bark adds multi-season interest to the landscape.

Lagerstroemia thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it well suited to southern and western U.S. climates. The #7 container size offers a substantial, established root system for faster establishment and earlier flowering than smaller nursery sizes. Suitable for use as a specimen tree, patio accent, or as part of a mixed border.
