PLANT PROFILE

Lagerstroemia indica 'Zuni', known as Pink Crepe Myrtle, is a compact, deciduous flowering shrub loved for its vibrant magenta-pink blooms and attractive exfoliating bark. Growing to a manageable 1.5–2 meters tall and wide, it fits perfectly into small gardens, mixed borders, and urban landscapes.

From late spring through summer, this drought-tolerant shrub dazzles with crepe-like flowers, while its dark green leaves add lush summer color before turning brilliant red and orange in autumn. Its smooth, mottled gray bark peels to reveal seasonal winter interest, enhancing its multi-season appeal.

With a rounded, compact form and multiple trunks, ‘Zuni’ thrives in full sun to partial shade and adapts to various well-drained soils. Low-maintenance and easy to care for, it requires only light pruning to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth. This Pink Crepe Myrtle brings effortless elegance, seasonal vibrancy, and reliable performance—perfect for patios, hedges, or as a standout feature in any landscape.
