Lagerstroemia indica 'Conlagras' PP #29,006
Compact shrub form with deep raspberry-pink blooms. This variety blooms earlier than other varieties. The low, mounded form is excellent for foundations, in mixed shrub borders, or as a low hedge. Resistant to powdery mildew.
Note: Regardless of hardiness zone, all crape myrtles are subject to die-back at temps below 15 degrees. Probability of this happening is increased by pruning in fall or winter. Prune only in earliest Spring. Blooms will be on new wood.
