Looking for a crapemyrtle that doesn't disappear in the crowd? This is it! The CENTER STAGE® Red series was developed by Spring Meadow's Megan Mathey with the goal of very disease resistant black foliage and super stunning flower color. CENTER STAGE® Red is the first to market, with vivacious cerise-colored blooms in summer. Performing very well in heat trials as well as in our field and gardens here in West Michigan. More colors to come!
