Lagerstroemia Barista® ‘Cool Beans’


Barista® Series of Lagerstroemias

Coming to us from the brilliant breeders at Waters Gardens in Michigan, this new line of compact, zone 5 hardy crapemyrtles have lovely, dark leaves and brightly colored flowers that bloom in late summer.

Cool Beans is a superb foliage plant with dark olive-green leaves covering its relatively short, rounded habit. In late summer when the rest of the garden may be getting tired, cool salmon pink flowers burst forth from rosy-red buds on dark rosy-red stems, covering the plant in color.

Please note: We don't sell plants. Asking your local retailer or googling the plant name is the easiest way to find someone selling our plants.
