Lovely bark.
I didn't know this tree before coming to France, but have several young ones that were already planted in the garden here. Can't wait to see them flower...

Wow ! I haven't seen such a large trunk on a Crape Myrtle before! It looks similar to the trunks on some smaller Eucalyptus trees I've seen here in California. This must be quite a specimen. Nice picture, thanks Paul.

Thanks. It was a beautiful tree, they have quite a few large crepe myrtles at the Dallas Arboretum.
