The crape myrtle is blooming. Three out of the five that I bought three years ago are blooming now. Two others are still growing and are getting quite large. crape myrtle ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) crape myrtle, different view, maybe ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) close up, crape myrtle flower ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) A couple that are not crape myrtle! butterfly on wasted zinnia ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) Butterfly should have chosen this one ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) That butterfly was on the wrong zinnia, I think! dooley
Silly butterfly! My Crape Myrtles are also in bloom. I've been seeing a pretty dark red one that I might just have to get.
We almost lost our 6 plants from that last hard Winter. They all got new growth from the ground. Don't know if they will bloom this year but I know we are way behind everyone else in a normal growing year. I love, love, love seeing your flowers.
