Crape Myrtle 'Pocomoke'


Published July 09, 2021

This deciduous flowering small shrub bears profuse crepe-like panicles of rose-pink flowers throughout summer! Features exquisite orange-red foliage color in the fall. The spectacular smooth, mottled, light cinnamon brown bark also adds year-round interest. Use for accent, background, specimen or street tree. Water regularly until established. Fertilize in spring with a well balanced fertilizer. Follow label instructions. Prune as needed in late winter. Blooms on new wood in spring through summer. Do not prune by "topping" plant.
