Scarlet Colorama™ Crape Myrtle - Red Summer Blooms

Bright red summer color in a garden-friendly size

Scarlet Colorama™ Crape Myrtle brings vivid red flowers and a strong vertical accent to sunny landscapes. Use it as a focal point, border planting, hedge row, or patio container specimen.

Why growers choose it

• Red summer blooms: A bold color accent when the garden is at its peak.
• Choose your starting size: Available heights range from 1-2 ft. to 5-6 ft., with several options in between.
• Sun-loving: Plant in full sun for the best flowering and a stronger display.
• Water-wise once established: Provide consistent water while it settles in, then reduce irrigation as roots establish according to local conditions.

Planting ideas

Place it where the red flowers can be seen from a patio, entry, or walkway. In a border, repeat several plants for a clean color rhythm. A container-grown selection can bring the same bright focal point to a patio or small-space garden.

With bold bloom color and multiple starting sizes, Scarlet Colorama is an easy way to add structure and seasonal energy to your outdoor space without inflated promises.
