Center Stage® Red Crape Myrtle (LAGERSTROEMIA CENTER STAGE® RED) - QT

Imagine a plant that brings a dramatic burst of color to your landscape from summer until frost without demanding all your spare time. The Center Stage® Red Crape Myrtle is exactly that backyard champion. Growing into an elegant, upright structure about 6 to 12 feet tall and 8 feet wide, it serves as an eye-catching focal point or a vibrant privacy hedge.

For gardeners in zones 7 and 8, this plant loves to bask in at least six hours of direct, blazing sun daily, which actually deepens its rich, dark burgundy-black foliage. Best of all, local deer naturally pass it by, keeping your hard work safe from hungry visitors. When planting, blend Watters Premium Mulch directly with your native soil to ensure the roots drain beautifully. Top it off with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to unlock those stunning, ruffled red blooms.
