Brazos Beautiful is engaging in many landscape projects with city, county, and state offices that involve planting crape myrtles, including clusters of the trees from Easterwood Airport along 2818 to the Bush Library complex, at major entrances off Highway 6 and 2818 to Bryan and College Station, and on the median of Highway 6. We are also sponsoring a program called CrepeScape , where we help businesses along Texas Ave. We are also exploring the possibility of sponsoring an annual crape myrtle festival. We encourage you to plant these beautiful trees.
Many varieties grow well in Brazos County.
Shrub and tree forms exist. Mature size from 2 feet to 30 feet or more in height. Choose variety appropriate size for location. Powdery mildew resistance for easier maintenance. Flower colors include white and many shades of cream, pink, red, rose, orchid, lavender and purple.
