With a narrow vase like form, Red Rocket® Crape Myrtle is a vibrant ornamental ideal for a small space. A heavy bloomer, the abundant flowers are tinged with purple, making them a rich ruby red. Glossy dark green foliage turns bronze/red in fall, and the cinnamon colored bark peels to reveal underlayers of silver giving Red Rocket® four season interest in the landscape. Sun loving and drought tolerant once established.
