We’re pleased to offer fine quality Crape myrtle bonsai and pre-bonsai for sale. Crapes are fast growers, easy to train and bloom profusely in a pot. One of my favorite flowering species.
Crape Myrtle – Lagerstroemia Indica
This is a nice starter Crape myrtle that is four years from a cutting. I styled the tree late in 2019, and it really turned out well. It should develop quickly in 2020, and is likely to bloom.
The trunk is 1/2″ at the soil level, and the tree stands 12″ tall. The surface rootage is amazing. Very fine Chuck Iker pot.
Blooms are white.
Ships when the buds start swelling, depending on the weather where you are. Spring at the latest.
Age: 4 years

Crape Myrtle – Lagerstroemia Indica
This is a nice starter Crape myrtle that is four years from a cutting. I did the initial styling in 2017, and have pinched, pruned and done minor wiring since then. This year the trunk has matured to actual bark, with a nice whitish color to it. In time it will exfoliate annually. The leaves are reducing now, and overall I think this bonsai just has the look of a Crape myrtle.
The trunk is just under 3/4″ at the soil level, and the tree stands 17″ tall. The pot is a nice round by Chuck Iker.
Blooms are white.
Age: 4 years

Item #Crapebonsai4
Crape Myrtle – Lagerstroemia Indica
I acquired this Crape from a grower recently. Today (9/9/17) I did the initial styling on it. This is a superb, styled pre-bonsai Crape myrtle that will enhance any collection. The trunk base is 4″ above the root crown, and it’s about 28″ tall. Great trunk taper and movement, and great nebari.
Can go into a bonsai pot in 2018. Will bloom profusely in summer (white flowers).
Estimated Age: 15-20 years

Crape Myrtle – Lagerstroemia Indica
Three years from a cutting. These guys grow fast!
I’ve been adding wire to this one since I first potted it back in June. Today (8/11/17) I finished the basic design. Now it’s just a matter of letting it continue to grow, removing wire as it bites in, and developing ramification which is very easy with Crapes. I expect this one to bloom next year (I have cuttings that will bloom right after I first pot them up). White flowers. Lovely Chuck Iker pot. The tree is 14″ tall.
