This showy shrub is popular on the continent for its extravagant panicles of vivid flowers that go on for months plus rich autumn colour. Lagerstroemia ‘Pink Velour’ is fully hardy, although it does need a sun-baked, sheltered spot in the UK to do its best. It is well worth indulging – against a south facing wall is perfect. You will be rewarded with a dramatic show of big, cloud-like panicles of magenta-pink flowers from June to September. The flowers have an unusual, crimped appearance as though fashioned from crepe paper and last for ages, providing a banquet for bees and other beneficial pollinators for months. Lagerstroemia ‘Pink Velour’ forms a large deciduous shrub or small tree with thick leathery leaves and attractive exfoliating bark. The leaves emerge burgundy in spring and provide an additional season of interest in the autumn when they blaze orange-gold. Height: 2.5m (8.2ft) Spread: 1.5 (4.9ft).
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Thompson & Morgan strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3
