Crape Myrtle

The Crape Myrtle specimens are coming into bloom, giving us a vibrant shot of color throughout the Arboretum. These bursts of color start earlier in warmer climates, but the beginning of August is typical for our Burlington County location. These blooms thrive in the heat of the summer. Following the bloom, small brown seeded fruits form and remain through the fall and winter season. Some great examples of color are found in the Medford Campus Community Building Parking Lot.
