Lagerstroemia
'Virgin'
crape myrtle
Lagerstroemia 'Virgin' is a beautifully compact crape myrtle, perfectly suited to smaller gardens, terraces or sunny borders where elegance is desired without excess. In spring, its fresh green foliage creates a neat, bushy framework that quietly supports the season ahead. As summer unfolds, Lagerstroemia indica 'With Love Virgin' comes into its own, producing generous terminal clusters of pure white flowers. Each bloom is made up of delicately crinkled petals, giving a soft, almost weightless texture that catches the light with a gentle luminosity. The overall effect is both crisp and romantic, allowing Lagerstroemia 'Virgin' to brighten planting schemes with a refined, cooling presence.
Beyond its summer display, Lagerstroemia 'Virgin' continues to reward with a striking autumn transformation, as its foliage shifts through warm shades of yellow, orange and red before leaf fall. This seasonal progression lends depth and longevity to its appeal, making it far more than a fleeting highlight. Lagerstroemia 'Virgin' pairs effortlessly with both soft pastels and deeper tones, and its restrained habit keeps maintenance refreshingly simple. Whether placed as a focal point or woven into a broader planting scheme, Lagerstroemia indica 'With Love Virgin' offers a graceful balance of brightness, structure and seasonal charm.

Plant profile
Plant calendar
Check each plant’s specifications. Hardy perennials can remain outdoors, while half-hardy and tender varieties should be kept frost-free until the risk of frost has passed.
Plant within a month, preferably sooner. Choose a suitable position, remove weeds and loosen the soil thoroughly, adding compost or well-rotted organic matter where needed.
Gently remove the plant from its pot and plant with the root ball level with the soil surface. Firm gently, water well and add a plant label.
Water regularly until established and whenever the soil feels dry during spring and summer. Feed container-grown plants fortnightly during active growth to encourage healthy flowering.
