Planning to install this yourself? We recommend a size 15 Gallon or smaller for DIY installations. These sizes do not require any offloading equipment.
Any tree or shrub that is sized by HEIGHT or CAL (Caliper- size where the trunk meets the root flare) is delivered with a large root ball wrapped in burlap (B&B). They are typically 1000+ LBS per plant. They will require heavy equipment to install. Installation is not included in the price of the plant. We highly recommend adding the ServeScape ‘One-Click’ Installation service (must be added at the cart page) for material of this size, or working with a contractor that can provide equipment for installation.

For any tree or shrub that is sized larger than 10’ HEIGHT or 3” CAL, the customer will be required to provide offloading equipment or a contractor to offload unless paying for installation through ServeScape. We will coordinate delivery with you so that your contractor can have equipment ready upon your plant's arrival!
**Dormancy Note - This plant is currently dormant for the winter! It is available for purchase! Your delivered plant may be dormant, or showing very little top growth. However, you can still plant! These plants are putting all their energy into root production, so they will be ready to thrive in the spring! If you have any issues with your plant the following peak season, you can fill out our return request form to request a replacement plant.

Raspberry Sundae® Crape Myrtle typically grows to a height of 8 to 12 feet (2.4 to 3.6 meters) with a spread of 6 to 10 feet (1.8 to 3 meters). It has a compact, upright growth habit and features dark green foliage that turns shades of orange and red in the fall.

One of the most distinctive features of Raspberry Sundae® Crape Myrtle is its stunning flower clusters. During the summer months, it produces abundant blossoms that start as white and gradually transition to a beautiful raspberry pink color. This unique coloration creates a captivating two-tone effect, with the older flowers remaining white while the newer ones turn pink. The flowers attract butterflies and other pollinators, enhancing the garden's beauty and biodiversity.

Raspberry Sundae® Crape Myrtle is known for its tolerance to heat and drought once established. It thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. This variety is often used as a specimen plant, in borders, or as a focal point in the landscape, where its striking flower coloration can make a statement.
