It's Easy to Plant your Tuscarora Crape Myrtle

Step 1 - Dig Your Hole
Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Tuscarora Crape Myrtle. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.


Step 2 - Place Your Tree
Next, separate the roots of your Tuscarora Crape Myrtle gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole
As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Tuscarora Crape Myrtle again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.

We planted this next to our driveway and it is growing beautifully.

By: Jill in West Lafayette, IN
At first I thought I lost the Tuscarora crape myrtles over the winter. So I ordered more to replace them. I was really surprised when I went to dig them out. I removed the mulch around the plant and found fresh little starts. I left them and they really grew big and bloomed all summer. They did better than the new ones I just got. I figured it was the rooting over the winter that did it. Thanks love them.

By: Bethany in Sapulpa, OK
Im not much of a gardener so when we got this tree I was sure I was going to kill it too. Its been almost three weeks now and the tree has already grown a foot and has blooms on it! This tree is awesome. Trust me, this is the longest Ive ever kept a plant alive ,I once killed a cactus,.

By: Linda in Frederick, MD
My trees made it through another very hot, dry summer with little maintenance. They bloomed beautifully. Thank you!

By: Kathleen & Toby in IL
We bought our Tuscarora crape myrtle to provide privacy from our neighbors new deck. It has grown at least 3 feet. We are keeping it trimmed down at the bottom. I cant wait to get it high enough to block that deck. We know it will! We have fast growing bushes & trees in several places on our property.

By: Darlene Caroppoli
We just got the plant 6 days ago and planted it right away, it has already grown 2", it looks great on our front lawn can't wait to see how it is going to look in 2-3 months.

By: Michael
This is a very resilient tree. I purchased three of them a year ago to provide a more ornamental driveway. Needless to say, I am pleased. Since then, all three of them have grown up to 4 feet in height and the Blooms are strikingly attracive.
