Lagerstroemia indica × fauriei ‘Natchez’ (Natchez Crape Myrtle)

Lagerstroemia ‘Natchez’ is a hybrid crape myrtle renowned for its stunning white flowers, smooth exfoliating bark, and exceptional disease resistance. This hybrid, developed from Lagerstroemia indica and Lagerstroemia fauriei, is a popular choice for ornamental planting due to its long blooming season, drought tolerance, and attractive multi-season appeal.

Key Features

  • Foliage: Dark green, glossy leaves that turn vibrant orange-red in autumn.
  • Flowers: Large clusters of pure white, crinkled flowers bloom from mid-summer to early Autumn.
  • Bark: Smooth, cinnamon-brown exfoliating bark, adding winter interest.
  • Growth Habit: Fast-growing, upright, and spreading, reaching 6–9 meters (20–30 feet) in height and 6 meters (20 feet) in width.
  • Soil: Prefers moist, well-drained soil, but highly adaptable to sandy, loamy, or clay soils.
  • Light: Thrives in full sun for best flowering and disease resistance.
  • Drought Tolerance: Very drought-resistant once established.
  • Pest/Disease Resistance: Highly resistant to powdery mildew and leaf spot, unlike many other crape myrtles.

Care Tips

  • Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to shape and encourage new growth. Avoid “crape murder” (severe topping), as it damages the natural form.
  • Watering: Water deeply when young; becomes drought-tolerant once mature.
  • Fertilization: Light application of balanced fertilizer in spring promotes healthy growth.
  • Mulching: Helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Uses in Landscaping

  • Specimen tree for gardens, parks, and streets.
  • Avenue or driveway planting for a uniform, elegant look.
  • Border or foundation planting.
  • Wildlife attraction, as it draws bees and butterflies.
