Nursery contributed plant descriptions

After the vivid red new growth of Lagerstroemia Coral Magic matures to glossy green, the salmon-pink flowers give a second louder and longer-lasting color display. Coral Magic crapemyrtle flowers earlier than the other Lagerstroemia we carry, so if you're working on succession flowering and starting the season sooner, add this one to your mix. Cut off spent flowers to extend the season even further with another flush of growth and reblooming by the end of summer. Coral Magic crapemyrtle is one of four First Editions® crapemyrtles that we grow.
