Well, now this is really embarrassing, but the other day near dusk I was out w/the camera, and I took some quick adhoc pics of the crepe myrtle. The pics are awful, and they show that the house needs a good power wash, but if I wait until I get out the backup drive to find the better pics, you'll probably never get to see the tree, so here goes.

In these pics you can see how the tree has a distinct vase shape with branches arching out and over. However, the blooms are now gone. The weight of the large blooms tends to pull the branches down much lower. When the blooms are loaded with dew or rain water, they droop to w/in a few feet of the ground. I'll have to get a pic of that look next year when it blooms again.
