These plants are amazing! They hardly ever ask for water and seem to bloom more as the heat becomes more intense.
Before I got my camera and before I started this blog, I never looked this closely at the plants in my yard. This is stage 1 of the crepe myrtle blooming. It looks like purple colored popcorn.
Here's stage 2 and 3 of the crepe myrtle blooming. You can see the crepe myrtle popcorn popping out the white bud in the background and the beautiful watermelon colored bloom in the foreground.
