Lagerstroemia indica Black Diamond
Hello from Lagerstroemia Black Diamond Tree at Garden Art by Samir Farm & Nursery. This brilliantly colored Best Red, Black Diamond Crape Myrtle features dark burgundy-blackish plum foliage which contrasts against the boldly colored red blooms, easily making it a focal piece in any landscape. The deep red and black colors are perfect for those looking to break up that “too much green” effect seen in typical flowerbeds. This medium sized shrub will bloom all summer until fall’s first hard frost. For best results, grow in full sun with well amended soil. Black Diamond Crape Myrtles have also showed improved tolerance to drought as well as fungal diseases like powdery mildew, and leaf spot.
