Lagerstroemia indica 'Catawba'

 

The Catawba Crape Myrtle boasts stunning clusters of dark purple, crepe-like flowers that last a long time. Its attractive foliage starts with a bronze hue in spring, shifts to bright green in summer, and transforms into vibrant orange-red in autumn. It’s resistant to mildew and naturally develops a beautifully rounded, dome-like shape as it matures.
