The listing, Pink Crepe Myrtle (10+ seeds) has ended.
This auction is for 10 crepe myrtle seeds. The parent plant is a soft medium pink so the seeds should produce the same color. As with all outdoor plants, cross pollination can occur, but since the only other crepe myrtle that is nearby is also pink, this should not be a problem. They are easy to grow and well worth the time it takes to get to blooming stage. The winner of this auction needs to contact me within 7 days with their verified shipping information according to Listia guidelines. I DO NOT SHIP TO UNVERIFIED ADDRESSES. Thanks for looking and feel free to check out all my other auctions. Happy bidding!
This is fairly hardy in zones 7-10, but in a large container and winter protection, (greenhouse or indoor solarium,) they can do well. They are deciduous and therefore will lose their leaves in the fall. A friend of mine in N.Y. has one in a large pot indoors all year round. In a large pot, they will dwarf somewhat naturally and they can be pruned to the size you need. Do your pruning either in winter or well after the spring bloom or you won't get any flowers. It will take about 3-4 years before a tree grown from seed will be of blooming size. Until then, they can be kept in about a 3 gal. size pot. After that, they will need more room.
