When all else fails to bloom in late summer,
in the South there’s always the prolific blooms of Crepe Myrtles!

Pat, I had never seen or heard of them before moving to the South too, but alas, we no longer enjoy peonies or lilacs in the spring in exchange. I love them all!
JdQ, i had never seen crepe myrtles until living in Southern California; however, they bloom more in the Southeastern region of the U.S. in my humble opinion. Come and visit any time that you like; you are ALWAYS welcome friend!
I enjoy the summer long color that ours provide as well. You got some great shots of yours.

Beautiful photos… I think I saw photos of Italy on Facebook too amazing … you take the coolest trips thanks for sharing Curt
Gorgeous color! I always wished I could grow Crepe Myrtles but the winters are too cold here in the NE.
Rebecca, I think that Crepe Myrtles are prevalent in NC too. Yes/No?
Thanks for always stopping by!
