About this tree

Muskogee Crape Myrtle brings a burst of summer drama, flowering from mid to late season when most landscapes are winding down. Fast growing to about 15 to 25 feet tall and 15 to 20 feet wide, it forms a graceful canopy that suits front-yard focal points, sunny borders, and patio edges. Exceptionally tough, it thrives in USDA zones 6 to 9 and shrugs off drought, heat, cold, wind, salt, and deer. Plant it for reliable color and easy, confident curb appeal.

Full planting & care

Planting+

Choose a spot with full sun and clay, loamy, sandy, well drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep, set the tree so the top of the root ball is level with the ground, backfill, and water in well. Space about 15 ft. from other plants.

Watering+

Keep the soil consistently moist, especially through the first two seasons; water deeply 2–3 times a week in summer heat.

Fertilizing+

Feed in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer formulated for trees and shrubs. A second light feeding in early summer supports vigorous growth. Avoid fertilizing late in the season.

Pruning+

Prune in late winter while dormant to remove any dead or crossing branches and to shape. Minimal pruning is needed otherwise.
