Crepe Myrtles are as common as grass in Texas. They are flowering trees/shrubs that come in many different flower shapes and colors. The Centennial Spirit is hot, hot pink, or fuschia in color and has long full booms. For my last half and half! Thank you Nicole for the challenge, it's been a half blast!
I love crepe Myrtles. We have had crepe Myrtles growing in our yard all my life. Ours area very soft pink and flower at Christmas so we call them Christmas trees.
