Crepe myrtle - Lagerstroemia 'Yuma'

DESCRIPTION: Summer flowering shrub with delicate cool-tone pale pink paper-like blooms and small oval shaped leaves. Deciduous through winter meaning the garden receives plenty of warm sunshine when it needs it most. Slow growing variety with smooth grey bark and an upright habit. Resistant to powdery mildew.
USES: Ideal for light screening, topiary, hedge planting and large containers. Crepe myrtles create a dazzling flowering display and beautiful shade in the garden summer-autumn
PLANTING: Plant in free draining soil in a full sun location. Mulch after planting to retain moisture and regulate soil temperatures as the young plant establishes.
CARE: Water regularly during the first 8-12 weeks until the plant is established, then during dry periods until the plant develops a trunk. Drought tolerant. Prune in autumn following leaf drop for prolific summer flowering and a dense growth habit; or deadhead after first flowers to keep an elegant shape and encourage a second flower flush. Fertilise using a slow release fertiliser twice yearly, thrive in clay soils.
HEIGHT & WIDTH: Up to 4 m H x 3 m W.
YOUR PLANTS: These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80 mm x 42 mm wide.
