bloomer; it paints the landscape in the summer months with its

other shades. Frequently termed the ‘‘Lilac of the South.’ Inter- 
planted with evergreens, beautiful effects are obtained. Massed in

-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.
