Re: Crepe myrtle. Still growing
Mine only lost the last ones a few weeks ago.

lots of fertiliser?

Hi Anth,
My tree would be a similar size to Ken's tree. It still has all the leaves but they are starting to turn colour.
Regards Ray

Sorry mate, I should have said it was about the same size as shown in your post.

Re: Crepe myrtle. Still growing
Hi ken it is in full sun all year round and it gets power feed when I remember usually once a month to once a fortnight, but hasnt had a feed in at least 5 weeks. I also have one that is on the same bench about a meter away and its changed colour and dropped over half its leaves but it is a lot younger.
All my deciduous trees are slow and behind the times but at least stopped growing a while ago.
