Plum Magic Crape Myrtle is a semi-dwarf shrub with a dense rounded habit. The foliage emerges a plum-purple and matures to a dark green throughout summer. The large clusters of fuchsia pink flowers bloom early in summer and will bloom again later in summer if the first flush of flowers is deadheaded. Prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil.
