ベリーニ®ストロベリークレープマートル

Months of strawberry-pink blooms on a tidy, knee-high shrub that never needs topping to stay in scale.

The Bellini® Strawberry Crape Myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica 'Strawconbel') is a true dwarf, maturing at just 3–4 feet tall and wide with a rounded, well-branched habit. From spring into summer it covers itself in crinkled, crepe-textured panicles of warm coral-pink to strawberry-red, and because it blooms on new growth it keeps producing fresh flushes through the warm months. Glossy green summer foliage turns warm shades in fall, and the smooth, mottled bark adds quiet interest once the leaves drop. Its compact size makes it one of the easiest crape myrtles to place — no butchered "crape murder" pruning required to keep it small.

Why growers choose the Bellini® Strawberry

• Long, reblooming color. Sets vivid strawberry-pink panicles from spring through summer, refreshing on new wood so the show lasts for months.
• Genuinely dwarf habit. Holds at 3–4 ft. tall and wide, so it fits borders, foundations, and containers without constant cutting back.
• Tough and adaptable. Thrives in full sun and heat, tolerates a wide range of soils, and stands up to summer humidity once established.
• Multi-season interest. Crepe-paper blooms in summer, warm fall foliage color, and attractive exfoliating bark in winter.
• Pollinator draw. The open panicles bring in bees and butterflies through the bloom season.

Use it as a flowering anchor in a mixed border, a low informal hedge or mass along a walk, a foundation plant beneath windows, or a single specimen in a large patio container where its summer-long color can be enjoyed up close.
