One of the Most Adaptable Crape Myrtles

Why Tuscarora Crape Myrtles?

This variety gives you hundreds of coral-pink flowers, no matter where you plant them! And since the Tuscaroras are perfect for barren areas or trouble spots, they're ideal to grow just about anywhere. Plus, you can choose between two different versions of this classic tree - a stately, elegant single-stem trunk, or a full, lush multi-stem!

Basically, this tree is an ideal solution for small areas
that don't have much planting space, such as small yards, next to structures, parking lots or along streets. And Tuscarora Crape Myrtles provide vibrant color in almost all growing conditions. It doesn't matter if your soil is sandy, loamy or clay...it's even drought tolerant.

Even better? The Tuscarora is cold hardy down to an amazingly low 0 degrees. Forget lopping off the top of this Crape Myrtle so that it survives the cold - the Tuscarora thrives through it all, so there's no hassle for you.

Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better

Like all of our Crapes, this one is highly resistant to disease, powdery mildew, and leaf spot. You get a spectacular tree without the problems. No fungicide treatments required! Plus, it's virtually allergy-free and fast-growing, so it's versatile and adaptable.

But the best part? We've planted, grown and nurtured it for best results in your own garden. Because we've put in the hard work at the nursery, long before shipping, you reap the rewards of healthier roots, more well-developed growth and easier, faster color.

So, don't wait - get your own Tuscarora Crape Tree today!

Crepe myrtle

I received these trees with a couple dogwoods and cherry trees. The other trees looked great established and healthy. This just looked like a twig that I would pick up out of my yard but instead I planted it and I am hoping for the best. I am new to all this so this may be normal. I will say delivery was fast and excellent.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Mandy, we’re glad to hear delivery went smoothly, and we understand your concern about the size. As a nursery, some trees are shipped at earlier growth stages and may look minimal at first, but they are healthy and will develop over time. If you need any guidance, our team is here to help.

Happy Customer!

We received the tree small but in good shape & is in the ground in our front yard by our bedroom to watch grow up. Love Crape Myrtles because they are easy to grow & love the sun & heat where we live. Thank you.

Customer service sent me a real 4ft after I complained

When I received my first order, I was very disappointed because the tree was in a 1 quart container. It was barely 3 feet high and had two skinny branches stuck in the container. . I complained and they did sent me a real 3 to 4 foot multi branch Tuscadora, which I’m happy with. The new one was in a 5 gallon container as it should be. However, I did not have to return the 1 quart plant so now I have two Tuscanero growing in my front yard. . I’m happy now that customer service remedy this even though the rest of my plants had to wait three weeks because I didn’t want to pay the Gardener twice
