Crape Myrtle: Hopi

Lagerstroemia indica x fauriei 'Hopi’, also known as a Crape Myrtle Hopi, is a semi-dwarf, deciduous tree or shrub. The common name refers to the crepe-papery inflorescences and the myrtle-like features of the bark and foliage. This particular variety is known for its bright pink flower clusters. In the Southeast, Crape Myrtles can grow into large trees, whereas it will die-back and maintain a smaller shrub form in cooler climates. Crape Myrtles are tough and hardy, needing summer heat to bloom. In the fall, the leaves on this particular variety will turn yellow and orange before falling. Crape Myrtles grow at a medium rate, and has a moderate to long life span. Crape Myrtles are valued mainly for its long period of striking summer flowers. The attractive, exfoliating bark peels away to expose a trunk which ranges in color from shades of brown to gray.
