Description

Lagerstroemia indica 'Ruffled Red Magic' commands attention with dazzling red flowers whose intensely saturated colour is matched by an exceptionally dense, finely crimped texture, creating a display of remarkable depth and richness. Flowering from July through to October, these heat-resistant, long-lasting blooms hold their vibrancy through the hottest spells, keeping the garden alive with colour while drawing in pollinating insects with their nectar-rich centres.

Part of the distinguished Magic™ series, this carefully selected variety stands out for its striking beauty, distinctive character and improved resistance to powdery mildew. Glossy green foliage provides an elegant backdrop to the lavish clusters, enhancing their impact and ensuring a showy, refined presence in beds, borders or as a focal specimen. The foliage transitions to beautiful orange-red tones in autumn, offering a second season of interest, whilst after leaf fall, peeling bark reveals lighter bark beneath offering an attractive feature throughout the winter.

Lagerstroemia is a familiar favourite in Mediterranean gardens but remains relatively rare in the UK. These flamboyant shrubs produce an abundance of long-lasting flowers, creating a spectacular display throughout the summer. They thrive outdoors in mild southern climates when planted in a warm, sunny location that allows the wood to ripen fully, with a south-facing wall providing the ideal sun-drenched position. Containerised specimens make a striking feature for a sunny summer patio before moving to a sheltered position to overwinter. 

Ultimate height: 3m (9.8ft). Ultimate spread: 2m (6.5ft).

How to Grow
Plant Lagerstroemia in any rich fertile soil in full sun. Although reasonably hardy once established, Crepe Myrtle enjoys a hot sheltered position and is best grown against a south facing wall or as a specimen plant in the conservatory.

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.

More Info
Feed and water Lagerstroemia regularly particularly when grown in containers. Crepe Myrtle plants will appreciate some protection from hard frosts throughout winter. Prune in winter or spring whilst dormant to remove and dead, damaged or misplaced stems and maintain a pleasing shape.
