Ruffled Red Crape Myrtle is a compact, densely branched shrub with an upright habit. The disease-resistant foliage emerges a deep green and turns red-orange in fall. Large panicles have distinct red carnation-like flowers that bloom early in summer and will bloom again later in summer if the first flush of flowers is deadheaded. Prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil.
