Crepe Myrtles

This is the first page of a new Garden Journal! 

The Crepe Myrtle on the right was featured twice in my previous Garden Journal (in Spring 2021 and Spring 2022). It flowered poorly in 2021 and not at all in 2022. Here it is again, this time in winter (I love drawing my garden through the windows on cold wet days). 


Crepe Myrtles flower on new growth so we gave it an extra hard prune this year. It looks unattractively stick-like at the moment but I'm hoping it will will give us a good showing this summer.
