Princess Kylie Crape Myrtle is a reblooming dwarf deciduous shrub with multiple stems and exfoliating bark. The foliage is a glossy grey green before turning dull red or burgundy in fall. While the main flushes of large magenta panicles bloom in summer and fall, additional booms may occur if deadheaded. Best color in full sun and rich well-drained soil. Very drought tolerant.
