Notes

'Rhapsody in Pink' lagerstroemia (Lagerstroemia indica 'Rhapsody in Pink') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and most soil types. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It grows about 122 to 146 inches tall and wide, so give it room. It blooms from early to late summer and again in early to late autumn.

Pairs well with Black-eyed Susan, Agapanthus, and Orange daylily.
