Lagerstroemia Townhouse
“Townhouse” is a deciduous, small tree, grown for its lovely flowers, foliage, and great form. Through summer it produces clusters of pure white flowers in such abundance they literally transform the plant. The showy flowers are complemented by lush foliage which emerges lime green in spring, ages to mid-green in summer, then develops red, orange, and yellow tones in autumn before falling. It grows with an upright habit to produce a compact and somewhat rounded crown as it reaches 3.5 m tall and 3 m wide. It can be trimmed as necessary. Best results with this Crepe Myrtle are achieved when it is planted in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site. It is tolerant of frost, cool climates, and short periods of dry. “Townhouse” is commonly grown as a small specimen tree, used in street or avenue plantings, included in courtyard gardens, or included in a mixed planting. This is a colourful plant that will bring a lot of pleasure.
