View Full Planting & Care Instructions
Sunlight
Crapes are full sun lovers, so plant in an area with well-drained soil and 6 to 8 hours of sunlight daily.
Watering
Though they are drought tolerant once established, you may have to water young trees more often, especially in the summer heat.
Fertilizing
Will greatly benefit from a light application of a complete, balanced, slow-release fertilizer formula in the early spring and summer seasons.
Garnet Blooms + Dramatic Growth on a Compact Form
Why Garnet King™ Emerald Empire® Crape Myrtle Trees?
Merging vivid color with a dramatic shape, the Garnet King is perfect as a standalone showstopper, border hedge, or container accent. Known as a "shrub tree", the Garnet King lives up to its name, delivering showy red blooms with deep scarlet undertones.
These flowers are on full display through the warmest part of the year, often appearing in the spring. The vibrant green foliage gives these deep-red blooms a beautiful backdrop. And since they're highly tolerant of both humidity and drought once established, these Crape Myrtles are virtually carefree.
Especially since they resist pests, while bringing graceful wildlife like butterflies and bees to your garden. The Emerald Empire Crape Myrtle is hassle-free, bringing together the best benefits of your favorite flowering varieties in one easy-to-grow package.
Why FastGrowingTrees.com is Better
Local garden centers and big-box retailers rarely stock these unique trees, and the varieties they offer are typically bare-root. That means weaker branches and sparse root systems.
When you order your Emerald Empire Crape Myrtle from Fast Growing Trees, you get a tree that's grown and nurtured with meticulous care, ready to thrive in your landscape and burst with color, quickly.
You can get the amazingly vibrant color of the Garnet King as soon as the first season!
Don't wait - these one-of-a-kind trees sell quickly. Get your Garnet King™ Emerald Empire® Crape Myrtle Tree today!
