Lagerstroemia Hopi Crepe Myrtle

Lagerstroemia indica Hopi is a vigorous, compact ornamental tree admired for its smooth grey bark and naturally broad, rounded habit. In summer, masses of soft pink blooms create a long-lasting display, bringing vibrant colour to small gardens, borders, and decorative pots. The dark green foliage provides a lush backdrop through the warmer months before transforming into brilliant shades of orange and red in autumn, adding valuable seasonal interest. Ideal as a specimen shrub or small feature tree, it sits beautifully in mixed borders and cottage-style gardens. For best performance, prune in autumn after leaf drop to encourage dense growth and prolific flowering the following summer, or simply deadhead spent blooms after the first flush to maintain an elegant shape and promote a second round of flowers.
