Bellini® Strawberry Crape Myrtle Treebute
Bellini® Strawberry Crape Myrtle brings big summer color in a tidy, compact package. This dwarf crape myrtle is covered in rich rose-pink blooms with red tones, creating a bright, cheerful show from late spring into late summer.
Its glossy dark green foliage gives the plant a clean, polished look through the growing season, then shifts to orange and yellow in fall for one last garden encore. With its dense, mounded habit and smaller size, it fits beautifully near foundations, along borders, in mixed beds, or in containers where larger crape myrtles would feel like they brought the whole forest with them.
