Healthy and growing fast!
Delivered healthy and on time. I planted them in April and as I write this in July each has grown at least a foot and are starting to bloom. I can't wait to see how much they grow next season after getting established. Another great purchase from FGT.
Healthy
So excited that my Crepe Myrtle is doing so well. I was afraid that because of my sandy soil and extremely hot summers is West Central Indiana that I would be wasting my money. But to my surprise this tree ( alone with flowers I have purchaed) exceeded my expectations. Can hardly wait till the tree is mature enough to flower.

Doing great so far, has new growth on it already
Beautiful red!
So far so good! I bought it in October 2024 and here it is in July! I was worried that it wouldn’t bloom because it gets sun for a good portion of the day but I’ve been pleasantly surprised. I have made a point to water it regularly.
It’s absolutely healthy and beautiful!
Excellent
