PRUNING IS IMPORTANT. 
After flowering, by pruning you can keep the 
Crape Myrtle within any desired size, making for 
a more profuse bloom, greater vigor, and retention 
of the same effect, and the planting will be just as 
pretty ten years hence, its growth being kept within 
proper bounds for a' maximum of beauty.
