Standing out from the crowd is the Coral Bloom Crape Myrtle, a captivating creation by Mitch Magee at Evergreen Nursery in 2015. This beauty boasts a rich history, born from the careful cross-pollination of a Natchez Crape Myrtle, known for its elegant white blooms, and an Ebony Flame Crape Myrtle, famed for its dark foliage. The result? A stunning deciduous shrub or small tree, reaching 10 to 20 feet tall, that injects both height and color into your landscape. The Coral Bloom Crape Myrtle truly lives up to its name. From mid-summer to early fall, this low-maintenance wonder explodes with a profusion of stunning coral-pink flowers. These vibrant blooms create a long-lasting spectacle, sure to turn heads and add a touch of whimsy to your garden. But the visual feast doesn’t stop there. The Coral Bloom boasts equally captivating dark burgundy-blackish plum foliage, providing a dramatic backdrop for the vibrant flowers and adding year-round visual interest.
