November for most, but the birds will beat you to them if you don't stake them out or cover the bush. I don't know about the ones in Florida, they bloom much earlier like in winter, they bloom here in the mid Atlantic in April. Four pounds of berries make one pound of wax which is worth its weight in gold as real Bay Berry candles.

Is a crepe myrtle a tree?
That one has fruit capsules, oppositely-occurring leaves, and showy flowers and is native to Australia and non-nitrogen-fixing while the other has fruity drupes, spirally-occurring leaves, and small catkins and is not native to Australia but is nitrogen-fixing are differences between crape and wax myrtles.Specifically, both myrtles can be found as fragrantly deciduous or evergreen shrubs and trees. But crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia spp) has the advantage of being native to Australia (and Oceania and south and southeast Asia) while wax myrtle (Myricaspp) can be found growing natively on every continent except Antarctica and Australia. Wax myrtle nevertheless is blessed with the ability to replenish nutrient-poor soil whereas crape myrtle is not a nitrogen-fixing woody plant. The two genera tend not to be confused because of the crape myrtle's capsuled fruit, colorful blooms and simple leaves and the wax myrtle's catkined flowers, complex leaves, and tasty drupes.
