They might be bare, but they are full of promise!

While most of the year it is a good time to plant trees in a temperate climate like Melbourne, July for deciduous trees is PARTICULARLY good. Planting trees when dormant is always advisable since that is when it is least disruptive to the tree.

	Lagerstroemia indica x fauriei 'Natchez' Crepe Myrtle (white) One of the most rewarding of trees is Lagerstroemia. From beautiful pale bare limbs, green leaves appear and spectacular white crinkle like flowers in late summer. Before it is winter again, foliage changes from dark green to orange before falling. This is a very popular line because of its intense flowering and year-round attraction whether in flower, bare in winter or otherwise. We have good numbers now in 30cm, 50 litre containers and 100 litre bags.
