Red rocket crêpe myrtles
I was very impressed with the packaging. We have had our trees planted for a week now and they look amazing. I’m very pleased.
Time will tell
Both trees showed up swiftly and in good condition. We'll see how they end up doing; no buds yet
Colorama Scarlet Crape Myrtle Tree
We were very pleased with the tree when it arrived last summer! It was in perfect shape, thanks to the way it was packed and delivered. It had some buds on it, which eventually bloomed. In the fall it dropped the leaves and the buds turned brown. I have been concerned that it didn’t make it through the winter, as many other trees are starting to bloom. I did the “coin test” and it is still white under the bark. One of the trunks first scraped brown, but with a little more scraping, the greenish white showed. I am so anxious to have it bloom! Fingers crossed!
Came in, excited to see
