Growing Tips for Lagerstroemia x 'GreatMyrtle™ Cherry Delight'

Plant in full sun with well-drained soil, and water regularly until established. Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring and again in early summer. Mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds. Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage strong blooms.
