My Crepe Myrtles

I bought this Crepe Myrtle in 2004 before I was laid off from EDS
It bloomed the first time in 2009.  It had a very hard early plant life.

I bought this one in 2010 from Lowes.  By now I had develope a routine, I  would go to Lowes on Saturdays
mornings bright and early.   If I had to be in Durham, I would work on the yard until it was time to get ready for my meeting or whatever the reason I would be in Durham, otherwise I would go visit with Mom at the resthome, check on my father in Kittrell and take care of their needs.  Whatever time I got back to Durham I would pull or spray weeds, plant  flowers, trees and weed John's Rose garden.


This is my 2004 Crepe Myrtle.  I didn't cut it back this year, beacuse the stump in the picture, when that tree was cut down, it fell on it.  I decided that it had lost enough limb for this year, but it grew like it loved the torture 


I bought this Crepe Myrtle from Lowes in 2010 as well, I didn't take a picture of it's initial planting
