The Sioux Crape Myrtle is a stunning, fast-growing variety with bright pink, large flowers that attract pollinators such as bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. Maturing with an upright growth pattern, the flowers of the Sioux Crape Myrtle are so large and heavy that they give the tree's branches a graceful weeping look. This makes it perfect for creating fast-growing hedges to line your driveway or property.
The Sioux Crape Myrtle features gray, tan and beige exfoliating bark, providing texture and visual interest even in winter. Its fall foliage transforms into brilliant shades of yellow, orange, and gold. The Sioux Crape Myrtle is similar in color to the Hopi; however, this variety matures faster and taller, offering a striking addition to any landscape.
