Vibrant Purple Blooms + Manageable Size

Why Black Diamond® Purely Purple Crape Myrtle Trees?

With miniature, clustered blooms, the Purely Purple Black Diamond Crape Myrtle create a vibrant treat for the eyes. A romantic purple tone adds a striking contrast to the backdrop of your garden, even in tight spaces.

This newer variety grows in a compact shrub form. Through the mid-fall and winter, it displays stunning black foliage, and distinct purple blooms are on display from spring to summer.

The Purely Purple Crape Myrtle flowers on new wood, so pruning will not affect the next season’s flowers. Plus, this variety can even be implemented as a container plant, ideal for porches, balconies, or small gardens! And because it's drought-tolerant and resistant to mildew, it's virtually carefree.

Why FastGrowingTrees.com is Better

You won’t find a healthier, better-developed purple dwarf Crape Myrtle - if you can even find one at all. Local garden centers and big-box retailers rarely stock these unique varieties, and the trees they offer are typically bare-root.

But when you order from FastGrowingTrees.com, you get a tree that's grown and nurtured with meticulous care, ready to thrive in your landscape.

Fill your garden with the vivid purple blooms that only this gem can deliver. Order your Black Diamond® Purely Purple Crape Myrtle today - before they're gone!

Best, healthiest, most loved and beautiful plant ever!!

Beyond amazing. Help was a simple and quick phone call away. And very clearly the love and pure dedication that was given to EVERY aspect of my plant prior to its arrival, and the shipping and the communication in between shows the love and care. Again, the love with which they clearly conduct their business is great. Always will recommend and with love purchase again. 🙏🙏☺️

Beautiful condition on delivery

Much better than expected! When I transplanted it some of the leaves wilted lightly but sprang right back with some good tlc: chicken manure compost, worm castings, topsoil and peat moss.
