Description
'Biloxi' Crape Myrtle is a pale pink flowering deciduous small vase-shaped tree. It was bred to have a long bloom season, better winter hardiness, drought tolerance and increased resistance to powdery mildew. This is a great choice for urban areas that have small spaces.
Pruning should be completed in winter or early spring, as this plant blooms on new wood.
A layer of organic mulch will help keep the plant retain moisture.
