The Double Dynamite Crape Myrtle is a showstopper that brings an explosion of cherry-red blooms to your landscape just when other plants begin to fade in the summer heat. If you are gardening in Zone 7 or 8, you will appreciate its manageable size, reaching a tidy 8 to 10 feet tall and wide. It is the perfect choice for a vibrant privacy screen or a stunning focal point near a patio.

To ensure success, plant your Crape Myrtle in a location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight; this is the secret to those prolific, ruffled flowers. These hardy shrubs are remarkably deer-resistant, allowing you to garden without the constant worry of local wildlife browsing your hard work. When planting, I recommend blending Watters Premium Mulch with your garden’s native soil to improve drainage and root health. Feed your new addition with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to encourage deep roots and vivid colors.
