Lagerstroemia ‘Tuscarora’ is a vigorous crape myrtle cultivar selected for its hardiness and mildew resistance. Vibrant coral-pink flowers appear in summer and hold up well in hot climates. The glossy dark green leaves change red in fall. In addition to its beauty, toughness, and ease of growth, this crape myrtle has beautiful bark that adds year-round interest. Grow as a shrub or train into a small tree. Use for accent, background, specimen or street tree.
Lagerstroemia is also a deciduous tree, meaning it loses its leaves in the winter. Before shedding their leaves, many crape myrtle varieties display beautiful fall colors, such as orange, red, or yellow. This leaf drop is a natural part of their seasonal cycle as they go dormant in the colder months.
