Crape Myrtle: Tuscorora
Lagerstroemia indica x fauriei 'Tuscarora’, also known as a Crape Myrtle Tuscarora, is a deciduous tree, prized for its bright coral clusters and striking fall foliage. The common name refers to the crepe-papery inflorescences and the myrtle-like features of the bark and foliage. 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. 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.
