Lagerstroemia indica 
The favorite Flowering Shrub of the South. A 
hardy and heavy bloomer; it paints the landscape 
in the summer months with its brilliant blossoms in 
tones of crimson, red, pink, purple, and other shades. 
Frequently termed the “Lilac of the South”. 
Interplanted with evergreens, beautiful effects are 
obtained. Massed in groups of any size, a display of 
color unrivaled is had the first summer. The most 
generous usage and the demand of recent years indi¬ 
cates its great popularity. 
PRUNE EVERY WINTER, For best results 
Crape Myrtles should be cut back to one 
•foot of the ground when planted. (By using 
big sizes you get better root systems). Then 
every year thereafter prune them back to 
within 2 to 4 inches where they were the 
year before. In this way you get much 
larger flowers, thick branches, and dense 
foliage.

as being the best type on the market.
