An ideal small tree for the south coast is the crepe myrtle. Drought and heat tolerant, the crepe myrtle is also disease and pest-free. It provides a beautiful floral display in the warmer months - white, soft pink, deep pink, mauve or red blooms. A deciduous tree, its foliage offers a beautiful autumn display, and bare in winter, the silver and tan trunk can be fully appreciated. The crepe myrtle enjoys full sun and depending on the variety chosen and care, can grow to a height and spread of 4-10m.
