Blooms Purple – For a rare and exciting flower color, the Catawba Crape Myrtle has large clusters of rich purple flowers produced all summer long, while most other Crape Myrtles have flowers in shades of pink or lilac.

It is fast-growing and can be used to quickly form a beautiful screen or it makes an outstanding specimen plant for your sunny garden.
