Notes

'Smnlcibf' lagerstroemia (Lagerstroemia indica 'Smnlcibf') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and xeriscape gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. The shrub is drought tolerant, so it suits dry beds. Deer tend to browse other plants first.

Pairs well with Lavender, Black-eyed Susan, and Rosemary.
