Lunar Magic Crape Myrtle

The Lunar Magic™ Crape Myrtle has exceptionally large trusses of pure white blooms, that are produced from June to September. Gracefully formed, this upright shrub will grow 6 to 10 feet tall, and be 4 to 8 feet wide, making a perfect specimen in your garden. The rich green leaves are shaded with red, making a rich, dark background for the gorgeous blooms. Plant it as a specimen, on a lawn or in a bed, around your home or as a screen. This stunning plant will work its magic on everyone who sees it.

• Icy white blossoms in huge trusses
• Rich green foliage with red overcast
• Very large flower trusses to 8 inches long
• Compact upright rounded form
• Root hardy to at least zone 6

Plant the Lunar Magic™ Crape Myrtle in full sun, in any well-drained soil. Once established it is drought resistant, and it grows well in poor and dry soils. Tolerant of harsh conditions, heat and humidity, it is the perfect choice in hot zones, yet it also survived in zone 6, coming back from the roots to bloom each year as a smaller shrub. It is very resistant to leaf diseases, rarely bothered by pests, and left alone by deer. A simple pruning in spring will keep it perfect all year round.
