Crape Myrtle Sunset Magic First Editions®

Talk about a sizzling combination! This compact beauty has large red inflorescences that cover the plant when it flowers. Sunset Magic™ flowers more heavily than other reds with dark foliage. Deep black-purple leaves are flat, lustrous, and hold their color into late summer. 

A full sun lover, Sunset Magic® is easily grown in average-medium moisture, well-drained soil. Sunset Magic® crape myrtles favor full sun exposure. Water regularly until the plant is established. It is drought- and heat-tolerant. Hardiness zones range from 7-9.
