Overview & Specifications
Sioux Crepe Myrtle - Lagerstroemia indica 'Sioux'
Lagerstroemia indica 'Sioux' is a refined, compact flowering tree that commands attention through summer with vivid coral-pink blooms and striking mottled bark year-round. At advanced stock sizes, it delivers immediate presence, colour, form, and structure from day one.
Why Sioux Crepe Myrtle
Extended summer flowering: Vivid coral-pink blooms sustained across several weeks, providing reliable seasonal colour at scale.
Ornamental bark: Smooth, peeling mottled bark retains visual interest through winter after leaf drop.
Considered scale: Mature height of 3 to 4 metres suits tight streetscapes, courtyard settings, and layered planting compositions without dominance.
Heat performance: Thrives in Australia's warm and temperate climates with no concessions to flowering quality.
Deciduous advantage: Winter leaf drop admits light to buildings and understory planting, a practical consideration for residential and commercial projects alike.
Ideal Applications
Feature specimen: A single advanced tree establishes an immediate focal point within a courtyard, entry, or open lawn setting.
Avenue and streetscape planting: Consistent form and controlled scale suit linear planting along driveways, footpaths, and boulevard treatments.
Mixed canopy compositions: Layers effectively within multi-species planting schemes designed by landscape architects.
High-density residential and commercial projects: Performs reliably in confined root zones and structured urban landscapes.
