Yes, a copper tree (also known as a copperleaf plant) can potentially harm a crape myrtle if they are planted too close together, as they may compete for nutrients and water. Additionally, if the copper tree releases toxins into the soil, it could adversely affect the crape myrtle's health. However, under normal circumstances and with proper care, they can coexist without causing significant harm to each other.
Although Crape Myrtle trees are not indigenous to Texas, they are still the state tree.

No, a Crape Myrtle is an angiosperm, not a gymnosperm. Gymnosperms are seed-bearing plants that do not produce flowers, while angiosperms produce flowers and have seeds enclosed in fruits. Crape Myrtles produce flowers and have seeds contained within capsules.
Crape myrtles typically reproduce through seeds produced in their flower clusters. These seeds can be collected and planted to grow new crape myrtle trees. They can also be propagated through cuttings taken from the parent tree.
