Apalachee Crapemyrtle
Originally released in 1986 by the US National Arboretum, this delicate lavender flowering crapemyrtle is an oldie but a goodie. A medium grower that is covered in blooms displays some of the best bark you can get in the Crapemyrtle world. With cinnamon and orange exfoliating bark, dark green foliage and a prolific bloom cycle this is truly a tree that gives seasonal interest year round.
