Soil:
- Use well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. Crape Myrtles are adaptable to various soil types but prefer slightly acidic to neutral soils (pH 5.5 to 7.0).
Watering:
- Water consistently, especially during the first year of growth. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
Mulching:
- Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to conserve moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds.
Pruning:
- Prune your Crape Myrtle in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
- Remove dead or diseased branches, as well as any crossing or crowded branches to improve air circulation and the plant’s overall shape.
Fertilization:
- Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring before new growth appears.
- Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for dosage and frequency.
