This deciduous shrub belongs to the Lythraceae family and is prized for its eye-catching blooms and manageable size.
Common Name: Zuni Crepe Myrtle
Mature Height (meters): Typically grows to a height of 1.5-2 meters
Mature Width (meters): Spreads to approximately 1.5-2 meters
Spacing: Plant at least 1.5-2 meters apart to accommodate its compact growth habit.
Foliage: The Zuni Crepe Myrtle features dark green leaves that turn shades of red and orange in the fall, adding seasonal interest to the landscape.
Flowering Period: The most captivating feature of Lagerstroemia indica 'Zuni' is its abundant magenta-pink crepe-like flowers that bloom from late spring through summer. These vibrant blossoms create a stunning and colorful display.
Bark: The shrub's bark exfoliates to reveal a smooth, mottled surface in shades of gray, adding to its ornamental appeal during the winter months.
Form/Habit: Lagerstroemia indica 'Zuni' has a compact, rounded growth habit with multiple trunks, making it an attractive and well-behaved shrub.
Uses: Ideal as a specimen plant, in mixed shrub borders, or as a colorful focal point in gardens and outdoor spaces. Its vibrant flowers and attractive bark make it a standout addition to landscapes, particularly in smaller gardens.
Sun: Prefers full sun to partial shade.
Maintenance: Low maintenance; minimal pruning is required to remove dead or wayward branches and to maintain its natural form.
Water Requirement: Regular watering is recommended, especially during dry periods and in the shrub's early years.
