Stunning, deep plum-purple foliage emerges in spring, providing a rich, dramatic backdrop for masses of vibrant, hot pink flowers that bloom all summer long. It’s a color sensation that will make your yard the envy of the neighborhood right here in Prescott!

The Plum Magic Crape Myrtle is a moderately sized tree, typically reaching 10-15 feet tall and 6-8 feet wide, making it perfect for smaller yards, as a striking specimen, or even planted in groups for a bigger impact. This sun-loving beauty thrives in our warm Arizona climate, soaking up the sunshine to produce the most intense foliage color and an abundance of those eye-catching blooms. And good news for those of us with deer visitors Crape Myrtles are generally not their preferred snack.

To give your Plum Magic Crape Myrtle the best start and keep those colors vibrant and the blooms profuse, I recommend planting with Watters Premium Mulch. This will help retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and provide essential nutrients as it breaks down. To fuel that fantastic summer-long flower display and maintain the rich foliage color, feed your Crape Myrtle in early spring and again in mid-summer with Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food. It’s the magic touch for a truly magical tree!

Add a touch of dramatic beauty and long-lasting color to your garden with the Plum Magic Crape Myrtle. You’ll enjoy its stunning display from spring through fall!
