Crepe Myrtle Sioux, Lagerstroemia indica, is a showy, narrow-growing small tree with masses of intense pink flowers in summer, highly ornamental bark and brilliant autumn colour. When mature, the bark of this variety will peel, creating a mottled effect to reveal the beautiful caramel-pink colour of its underbark. Producing medium to hot pink flowers, the visual display is carried into autumn with leaves of vibrant tones of red, orange and yellow. Crepe Myrtle Sioux provides a stunning highlight to the garden during the whole year.
