Growing Instructions
Growing Instructions: Soil preparation: Crape Myrtle prefers rich, well- drained soil in full sun. Planting: Dig a hole 8-10” deep and wide enough so the roots can be spread apart. Return soil loosely to the depth needed by the plant, so that all of its roots will be covered with about 2” of soil. Place plant in hole, spread roots and fill with good loose garden soil. Watering: Water thoroughly at planting. While actively growing, water frequently and thoroughly so that water will reach roots. Mulching: Mulch to keep the soil cool and prevent soil from drying out. Fertilizing: Fertilize after planting and every 3 months during the growing season.
Care Tip
Care Tip: Crape Myrtles bloom on new wood and should be pruned in winter or early spring. Remove basal suckers, twiggy growth, crossing branches and branches growing to the center of the plant. Also remove side branches up to a height of 4-5’ – this exposes the handsome bark of the trunks.
