I have two crepe myrtles, they are around 7 yeas old, they have never bloomed. I have fertilized, fed, etc. over the last five years. They are beautiful trees, just no blooms. I need some ideas as to what else I might try.
I have 7 Crepe Myrtel and the only thing I've done to them is water when it gets hot and dry. Maybe you are doing too much to them. Cut back on the water.

I have a very large Crepe Myrtle that doesn't bloom much, but it's very tall and not bushy at all. What's the problem. My other crepes didn't bloom much this summer either.
I planted Crape Myrtle plants last year and this year they haven't bloomed? What to do?
Here is the best web site for gardening help in your growing zone. Clemson University, go to the section Clemson Extension HGIC (Home and Garden Information Center). You can get all the tips on growing and caring for crepe myrtle. Good luck. (08/08/2009)
