Vertical Myrtles


Most crepe myrtles I see growing in yards around here have been reduced to mere decorations, yard ornaments coaxed into unnatural positions and growth patterns by yearly pruning. When granted their freedom, however, most crepe myrtles appear to want to grow tall, as high as 30-40 feet in some cases. I tend to prefer these vertical versions, actually.
