I have been researching crape myrtles for my roof garden. I have mostly perennials and annuals that require a lot of work, and would love a flowering shrub that would be lower maintenance. There are crape myrtles growing around the city against buildings and houses, and some of the dwarf varieties are supposed to be cold hardy to zero degrees. Does anyone have experience with crape myrtles in a large container in zone 6? I would wrap the planter for the winter.
Thanks.
