PETITE PINKIE CRAPE MYRTLE 5gal

Transform your garden into a continuous showcase of charming color with the "Petite Pinkie" Crape Myrtle! This delightful dwarf variety is a true gem for any Prescott landscape, offering a profusion of soft, bubblegum-pink blooms that grace your yard from early summer through fall, often continuing until the first hard frost. Unlike its larger cousins, "Petite Pinkie" maintains a graceful, compact size, reaching a mature height and width of just 3-5 feet. This makes it an ideal choice for smaller gardens, foundation plantings, mixed borders, or even eye-catching container displays. Beyond its gorgeous floral show, you'll appreciate its attractive, exfoliating bark and beautiful fall foliage colors.

"Petite Pinkie" Crape Myrtle absolutely thrives in full sun, needing at least six hours of direct sunlight each day to produce its abundant, cheerful flowers. This makes it perfectly suited for our sunny Arizona climate. Once established, it demonstrates impressive drought tolerance, making it a smart, water-wise addition to your landscape. Furthermore, it's known for its excellent disease resistance and is reliably deer and rabbit resistant, ensuring your beautiful blooms remain undisturbed by local wildlife.

For optimal growth and a spectacular display, plant your "Petite Pinkie" Crape Myrtle in well-drained soil. We highly recommend blending Watters Premium Mulch with your garden's native soil during planting. This will significantly improve soil structure, enhance drainage, and help maintain consistent moisture around the roots, fostering a healthy environment. To give your "Petite Pinkie" the best possible start and encourage an extraordinary season of blooms, mix in Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food into the planting hole. This balanced feed provides the essential nutrients for vigorous growth and a truly enchanting floral performance!
