Crape Myrtles

 

 

Since it’s introduction in the antebellum South during the 1800’s, Crape Myrtles have become a staple of the Southern garden.  In recent years, gardeners along the Eastern seaboard have successfully pushed some cultivars of the Crape Myrtle along the coast as far north as Cape Cod.

With new cultivars coming out almost every year, gardeners can get Crapes in almost every color and size ranging from dwarfs like Pocomoke at about 12″ to the original Japanese variety called Townhouse which can reach 50 feet. Home and Garden Landscapes has a fantastic selection of mature specimen quality Crapes for your landscape.  Below is a partial inventory of our Crape Myrtle selection.

Thank you so much for the wonderful tree installation you did last October. All 55 trees are doing wonderful and have added an incredible amount of color and variety to my property.

The hollies have done a wonderful job of giving us our valued privacy. We are so very happy. Thank you!
Chris & TrishaRaleigh, NC
They over-delivered, came in on budget, and solved our privacy issues. We highly recommend them!  
Kim & Teresa S.Hillsborough, NC

The 18 foot hollies are amazing. They totally and instantly solved our view problem — rather than looking at a newly constructed commercial building, we now look out on lush green plantings.

Thomas & Pat B.Apex, NC

David, we absolutely love the landscape makeover you did for our property. We’ve gone from having an overgrown yard that hid our home to beautiful plantings that complement our house design. Our neighbors love it, too.

They’ve done multiple projects for me and the results have always been wonderful.
