The Crape Myrtle Growing from Seeds - Gardening and Hobby 43

We may collect Crape myrtle seeds when the seed pods have turned from green to brown, and this happen in the Fall season.



Fig 01- Flowers of Crape Myrtle blooming.

The seeds are stored in the cool and dry places, then be used (planted) in the Spring season. 

In our case, this seedling was germinated in the baggy. and then put it in the "specific" pot after it sprouted.

After about six months in the pot, the Crape Myrtle plants have reached about 17 inches (43 cm) tall.

It’s already got flowerheads on every single seed sprout the yellow centers turn to seed pods and we have many of those on there as well.

This plant comes from Asia, and very popular in the warm climate like our areas, Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The flowers have variety of colors such as white, red, pink and purple.

  10. As sementes de crape myrtle podem precisar de estratificação a frio para germinar. Coloque as sementes em um saco com areia úmida e refrigere por cerca de 30 a 60 dias para simular condições de inverno.
