Early in the summer, or a little bit later, depending on the variety, Crape Myrtles come to blossom. Their attractive flowers will decorate your garden throughout the season. Although Myrtles are usually fast growing, large shrubs and trees, miniature Crape Myrtle varieties are suitable for smaller gardens and even for terraces.
Twelve feet trees and shrubs will decorate your spacy garden, but to make your deck or patio more appealing, you will need something smaller. These miniature or dwarf versions are suitable for any space, and they mostly reach up to three feet. Great number of appealing colors and shapes make this plant very attractive.
Although there are numerous varieties of this lovely plant, some of them are more popular among gardeners. For example, Chickasaw. This small plant will rarely reach two feet, but it is highly resistant to all weather conditions, and its appealing, softly pink flowers look great in any environment.
Delta Blush is also highly popular among gardeners. Bunches of lovely light pink flowers are the main reason why this plant is so popular as a showcase plant. It is highly resistant to insects and will survive almost any weather condition. You can grow it in open, but it will also be perfectly happy planted in a larger container.
Pocomoke is very good potting plant, and it has especially attractive, hot pink clusters that come late in the summer. Weeping Alamo Fire comes earlier, and people mostly choose it thanks to its beautiful red flowers. This amazingly appealing plant will decorate your terrace or patio, and add color to any part of your lovely garden.
New Orleans Weeping will grow up to three feet, and it will add a hint of purple to your garden. If you prefer watermelon red instead, choose World's Fair Weeping. With an average height of two to three feet, this lovely little plant will really add some spirit to any terrace, garden or patio.
Most minis have fair to good mildew resistance. They are suitable for even the smallest gardens, but also for container gardening, and some varieties work very well as ground cover as well. Rosy Carpet is among the smallest ones, especially suitable for this purpose. It has lovely pink flowers that look very attractive.
During the growing season, you should fertilize your plants regularly, maybe twice a week. The best mixtures are water soluble ones. Most Myrtles can survive low temperatures, if planted in the ground. Potted plants should be protected if it gets too cold outside. These plants are resistant to most insects, except maybe aphids. They don't have serious problems with any plant diseases.
Miniature Crape Myrtle adores full sun, but slight shade won't be a problem. It doesn't have problems with any soil type, but if it gets too hot, it requires enough water. Suitable for growing in very hot climate, this small and attractive plant is highly decorative addition to any garden, terrace or patio, and requires very little maintenance.
