Description: This tree has year-round interest with plums of white flowers, stunning fall color, and attractive smooth bark, there is little to not like about the Crape Myrtle ‘Natchez’. Natchez is a great street tree or space filler for that small patch of yard.

Special Growing Considerations: This tree is a great space filler. You can plant these trees in tight dense aligned rows for an elegant landscape display or just have one in the corner of the yard. They are a pretty easy tree to grow with no special soil or watering considerations. Please do not butcher your Crape Myrtles, what folks often refer to as “Crape Murder”, which is when Crape Myrtles are cut back or topped in extreme ways. Doing this will only shorten the life of your tree and create more maintenance and mess for you to clean up in the years afterward.
