We’ve just got fresh stock of this amazing new dwarf Crepe Myrtle called “Summer Red”. This spectacular red flowering shrub only grows shoulder height and it non stop flowers all summer long. It flowers for over 100 days!!!! When the flower heads finish cut them off and new growth and more flowers soon follow. This super hardy dwarf Crepe Myrtle is so hard to find in nurseries. We have 100 plants only, they are bursting into bloom for just $34.99. This plant is a winner!!! Yes you can grow it in
