When do you prune crepe myrtle?
Prune Crepe Myrtle in late fall. It's a southern plant and u want to wait long enough that it won't be hot enough to regrow. I say November or December. Also Crepe Myrtles are stripped of all limbs on the lower half. It's best to do this most in fall and spring, but I usually have to trim this through summer too. Be sure to prune correctly to avoid disease
How long before they bloom?
Flowers, trees, shrubs, etc. all have a different length of time before they bloom. For example: are you asking about how long a crepe myrtle tree takes to bloom after you buy it from the nursery and plant it or are you asking what month you can expect to see crepe myrtles in bloom? Are you asking how long an amaryllis bulb in a glass container with rocks takes to bloom after it's purchased from a store or are you asking when amaryllis plants normally bloom in their native habitat in South America? Please ask about a specific plant.
How do you care for crepe myrtles?
Just be patient. It will start itself. Both the crepe myrtle (blooming variety) and the wax myrtle (non blooming variety) will send out sister roots and these will become new plants about 2-5 feet away from the original "mother" plant. Just wait till these sisters get over a foot high and when its not in bloom, dig it up and move it to a new location. Its best to do this in the late fall or early spring.
