Lagerstroemia 'Comanche' is an enchanting feature to any landscape, bringing a burst of coral-orange color to any garden with its graceful clusters of flowers. This delightful deciduous tree, affectionately known as the Comanche Crape Myrtle, rises elegantly to a height of up to 12-15 feet, creating a commanding presence that will undoubtedly draw admiring glances. Its foliage is equally striking, with glossy dark-green leaves that transition to bold hues of orange and red as the seasons change, making the tree a year-long spectacle.
