The Delta Blush Crape Myrtle, while sometimes mistakenly labeled as a miniature, is a standout dwarf variety that matures to about 6-8ft tall and wide. Unlike some descriptions, this crape myrtle doesn’t feature true peach flowers; instead, the Delta Blush Crape Myrtle showcases large, rich pink blooms with a subtle peach undertone. These flowers, reaching up to 12 inches in length, are borne on bushy branches that gracefully weep under their weight. At Southern Charm, we take pride in our commitment to vibrant color and true-to-form growth, and the Delta Blush Crape Myrtle exemplifies both.
