Crape Myrtle in Phoenix
I planted a 15 gallon crape Myrtle in October along with two Chinese Pistache. The Pistache are doing fine, but the Crape Myrtle keeps turning brown and dying back. I was watering it once per week but that’s apparently not enough so I switched to two weekly but it’s still not doing well. It bloomed a few weeks ago but everything is dying again, including the flowers. Leaves are turning brown at the tips and moves inward. Any experience with this tree? It’s in direct sunlight pretty much all day.
