Lagerstroemia x 'Ebony Fire' Sku#1959
Ebony Fire displays bright crimson summer flowers. The black foliage is an excellent contrasting color to make this a specimen crape myrtle.
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. Bloom will be on new wood.
*Seldom Damaged by Deer* Attracts: Butterflies, Hummingbirds & Birds.
