Crepe Myrtle Up Close...





From my garden this morning, Crepe Myrtle up close and personal.

 Thinking of the mothers of little ones beginning school this morning for the first time. For some, the new school year begins today.

Crepe myrtle is SO pretty. It must be too cold to grow it here. Lovely picture!

Hi there.....i planted crepe myrtle in 2006 when i started my garden. But i've never seen a bloom on it yet...i've moved it to a new place just about every spring which could have something to do with it....do you have any secrets to share w/me? xoxo
