fauriei
Natchez Crepe Myrtle is a deciduous tree creates great interest throughout the year. In summer, clusters of spectacular white, crepe-paper like flowers are produced.

Bark also provides colour as the tree matures, with it’s flakiness revealing the rich, brown underbark. A beautiful growth habit and resistant to mildew, this variety will tolerate periods of dryness once established. Mature growth: 7-9m tall x 4-5m wide

SaturAid Granular Soil Wetter makes water soak deep down to the root zone of garden beds, pots and lawns for stronger, deeper root systems and healthier plants and lawns. SaturAid works immediately so that watering, rainfall and liquid feeding are more effective, even in hard-to-wet sandy, clay or compacted soils and potting mixes. SaturAid has a sustained, slow-release wetting agent for continued results, and is the choice of leading professional growers. Water problems often begin at the soil surface. Water run-off is a sure sign of hydrophobia, a condition that stops water penetration to the root zone. SaturAid is a wetting agent that helps water penetrate deep into the soil, where the plant needs water and nutrients most. It overcomes the common problems of water run-off, dry spots and uneven wetting of potting mixes and soil.
A treatment with SaturAid is long-lasting and will improve watering effectiveness for 12 months.
