Crepemyrtle, 'New Orleans' Dwarf

There are now many named varieties of dwarf Crepemyrtle.  'New Orleans' is a purple-flowered clone in the "Dixie Series" which Dirr (Manual of Woody Landscape Plants) calls "minature weeping crapemyrtles".  As with other Crepemyrtles it should be planted in a sunny location, with well-drained and reasonably fertile soil.  These plants can be expected to reach 2-3 feet in height.
