Center Stage® Red Crape Myrtle is a vigorous and disease resistant dwarf selection with dark foliage and bright red flowers. Perfect for adding drama to the landscape and suitable for containers too. Compact enough to be used as a hedge or specimen with a shrubby habit that does not require pruning unless desired. Here at the nursery we’ve grown other varieties with dark foliage and red flowers and prefer Center Stage® Red for its resistance to powdery mildew.
