Description
When it comes to flowering trees, there’s simply no others more showy than Crape Myrtles. They bloom for up to 100 days during summer, when there are few other trees and shrubs providing that service in the landscape. Colorful fall foliage and attractive exfoliating bark in winter enhance their overall appeal. It’s no wonder they are so wildly popular among designers and gardeners!
A year round color factory, ‘Natchez’ is perhaps the most colorful, attractive and tallest growing of all Crape Myrtle trees. For up to 120 days of summer this magnificent tree produces large 12 to 16-inch long clusters of pure white flowers at the ends of long, arching branches that form a wide, umbrella-shape canopy. The large, dark green leaves provide a nice backdrop for the flowers and turn to colorful shades of yellow during the fall. But perhaps one of the most unique and outstanding characteristic is the cinnamon-red bark that provides captivating interest in the landscape during the winter months. What’s more, Natchez is a totally mildew resistant Fauriei Hybrid.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 20 to 30 feet tall and 15 to 20 feet wide, the Natchez Crape Myrtle is one you’ll plant as a tree and not a shrub. It is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, in rows to line a drive or property line, or near patios, decks and other outdoor living spaces to provide shade. Excellent for framing the corners of homes and other buildings.
Suggested Spacing:Â 15 feet apart for solid hedge; 25 feet or more apart for space between trees
Growing Preferences
Natchez Crape Myrtle is very easy to grow. It is not picky about soil type provided the soil is well-drained. A moist but well-drained soil of average fertility is preferred. Full sun is preferred and results in heavier flower production. Light shade is tolerated but flowering will be diminished in more shade. Has shown excellent resistance to powdery mildew and is quite drought tolerant when established.

My husband and I have a special love for the Natchez crepe myrtle. We were married in Natchez, Mississippi many years ago and have always had one planted in a special place in our yard. Last year we built our retirement home, so, we’re in the process of landscaping. Enter Wilson Bros. Every single plant we’ve received from their nursery has arrived within days, been expertly packed and in most cases, the soil is even damp! Our Natchez was no exception and it is now proudly the centerpiece of our new front yard and growing nicely. Thank you Wilson Bros. We will continue to order our landscape plants from you, I already have a long “wish” list! ———————- WBG Reply: Hi Debi – Such a great story and so glad you shared it with us. Natchez is also a personal favorite of mine among all crape myrtle varieties. Have three on each side of the entrance of my driveway and they are truly magnificent. We hope you enjoy yours for years to come. Let us know if there’s ever anything else we can help you with. We’re at your service! – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens
