Talk about red AND ruffled! This new crape myrtle has distinctly different, carnation-like, glowing red flowers that show beautifully against the lustrous dark green foliage. Foliage turns orange-red in fall. The habit is upright, but compact, with dense branching. Like the others in the Magic series, Ruffled Red reblooms in late summer if the first flush of flowers is deadheaded. It is also resistant to Cercospora leaf spot and powdery mildew, which is quite a breeding accomplishment in red crapes. Perfect for containers, landscapes, and as accents! Water before planting, Plant in Full Sun, Dig hole 3X the width of pot, Back-fill and plant 1-2 above soil level, Water and add more soil if needed, Mulch plants, Fertilize in early spring
