Diamonds in the Dark Pure White Crepe Myrtle - Lagerstroemia indica ‘Pure White’
White flowers against near black leaves is about as high a contrast as any garden plant offers, and that is exactly what ‘Pure White’ was selected to do. The foliage of this Lagerstroemia indica selection emerges deep burgundy black and holds the colour all season, then crisp white crepe textured panicles open from midsummer and continue into autumn. Because it stays at large shrub scale, it delivers that contrast in spaces where a full sized crepe myrtle would be far too big.
Why Pure White
Maximum contrast: Clean white bloom heads against black foliage give the strongest visual statement in the series.
Evening presence: White flowers hold visibility at dusk and under garden lighting long after darker tones disappear.
Season length: Colour starts with the burgundy spring leaf flush and runs through to leaf drop in late autumn.
Disease resistance: Selected for resistance to powdery mildew, which historically disfigured crepe myrtles in humid coastal summers.
Heat and drought hardiness: Established plants flower well through hot dry Australian summers with limited watering.
Ideal Applications
Formal white garden: It anchors a monochrome scheme with white agapanthus, gardenia and iceberg roses.
Entry statement: A matched pair either side of a path gives strong summer colour at the point of arrival.
Screening row: Close planting produces a dark leafed informal hedge that flowers heavily along its length.
Poolside planting: The clean flowers and dark foliage suit pool surrounds, with far less litter than a large tree.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 1.2 to 1.5m
Spacing (feature/avenue): 2.5 to 3m
Best Planting Season: Autumn or early spring
Soil & Drainage: Well drained loam with moderate fertility. Over rich soil and heavy nitrogen produce leafy growth at the expense of flowers, so keep feeding modest.
Establishment Care: Water deeply once or twice weekly through the first two summers, targeting the root zone rather than the foliage to keep the flower heads clean. Mulch well, prune in late winter to a strong open framework, and remove spent flower heads in midsummer to encourage a second flush before autumn.
