  Crepe Myrtle (Lagerstroemia spp.) is a beloved deciduous tree or large shrub known for its long-lasting, vibrant blooms, attractive bark, and minimal maintenance needs. Native to Asia, Crepe Myrtles are popular in warm climates for their showy clusters of flowers that bloom from late spring through early fall. Flowers appear in shades of pink, red, purple, white, and lavender, adding vivid color to landscapes over an extended season. The tree’s distinctive, smooth, mottled bark sheds in thin layers, revealing a handsome, polished look that adds interest even in winter. Crepe Myrtles vary greatly in size, from dwarf varieties as small as 3-5 feet tall to large trees reaching 20-30 feet, depending on the species and cultivar. They thrive in USDA zones 6-10 and prefer full sun, which promotes the best bloom production and helps prevent powdery mildew. Crepe Myrtles are adaptable to various well-draining soil types, including sandy, clay, and loamy soils, and are drought-tolerant once established, making them ideal for low-water gardens. Low-maintenance and resilient, Crepe Myrtles require only occasional pruning to remove any deadwood or to shape the tree. Pruning in late winter encourages new growth and enhances flowering. These trees are often used as ornamental focal points, in rows along driveways, or as flowering hedges in both formal and informal gardens. With their vibrant blooms, attractive bark, and adaptability, Crepe Myrtles are a favorite for adding year-round beauty and interest to landscapes, especially in Southern gardens.

Native to North America, Red Oak has a straight trunk and dark gray bark with distinctive, shiny ridges. In spring, the tree produces small, yellowish-green catkins, while its large, lobed leaves turn to brilliant shades of red in autumn, making it a standout in any landscape. Red Oaks typically reach heights of 60 to 75 feet with a similar spread, creating a generous canopy that offers ample shade. They thrive in USDA zones 4-8, preferring full sun and well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Red Oak trees are adaptable to various soil types, including sandy, clay, and loamy soils, and are moderately drought-tolerant once established. Their rapid growth rate and long lifespan make them ideal shade trees for parks, large residential properties, and open landscapes. Low-maintenance and hardy, Red Oaks require minimal pruning aside from removing dead or damaged branches in late winter. They are generally resistant to pests and diseases, though young trees may benefit from mulching and occasional watering during dry spells. With their stunning fall color, dense canopy, and robust form, Red Oaks are favored for adding structure, shade, and seasonal interest to landscapes, contributing both ecological and aesthetic value for generations.

  River Birch (Betula nigra) is a hardy, fast-growing deciduous tree known for its attractive peeling bark, disease resistance, and adaptability to wet soils. Native to the eastern United States, River Birch has distinctive cinnamon-colored bark that peels in papery layers, revealing lighter bark underneath, which adds year-round visual interest, particularly in winter. Its foliage emerges in a vibrant green in spring, turns yellow in the fall, and forms a dense canopy that provides excellent shade.

It thrives in USDA zones 4-9 and performs best in full sun to partial shade. While it is highly tolerant of wet and poorly draining soils, River Birch is also adaptable to drier conditions once established, though it will benefit from consistent moisture in dry climates. River Birch requires minimal maintenance, with occasional pruning to remove any dead or crossing branches, ideally done in late fall or winter to prevent sap bleeding. It is naturally resistant to pests and diseases, including the bronze birch borer, making it a popular alternative to other birch species in warmer and more humid regions.
