This crepe myrtle is ~5 years old. It started out as a twig with a root sent from the Arbor Foundation. #flowers #CoSoPhotography

@poemblaze Lovely! How tall is it?

Against the odds, I planted one here. It's a dark red leaf with close to that color blooms. I'm half a zone too cold but cannot wait 20 years (or even 10 years) to change that zone... if It gets close to it's lower temp limit I'm going to set up a heat lamp or something...
