Heat - Lover
The Crepe Myrtle bush is in full bloom, it's flowers will put on this show for the better part of a month.
The bees and Hummingbirds are drawn to it's huge Watermelon Red blooms.
It loves the summer heat, I have offered it my portion.

It is such a prize winner. It is doing well considering your summer weather. The color is so stunning.
Oh my, now that is a REAL BEAUTY!
How exquisite....
What a show from the myrtle. The photos are marvellous with the brilliant colour of the flowers and the green grass in the background
I love that pretty bush. Thanks for all the wonderful pictures of it. :-)
So beautiful! And if it loves heat so much, this is the right year for it.
Jo, I wish I had that beautiful flowering Crepe Myrtle here to look at everyday. I love the color. Stay cool and dry there. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
