| Hi I am interested in the QUEEN'S LACE PICOTEE crape myrtle . I have looked everywhere to get a picture of a Fully Grown tree of Queens Lace Picotee variety but have not been able to find. I have the following questions regarding QUEEN'S LACE PICOTEE. Appreciate if you could kindly clarify them so that i can place the order. * Can you please send the images of a fully grown Queens Lace Picotee tree showing the entire tree stem and canopy so that I can see how a Fully grown Queens Lace Picotee Crape Myrtle tree looks like .because I cannot find any images online of a fully frown Queens Lace Picotee . * Also how long does it take to grow * What height does Queens Lace grow and width of its canopy. * Does Queens lace have a canopy like the Tuscarora crape myrtle. * How many weeks does it flower in a year and which months ? * What zones does Queens lace grow in and how is it suited for New Jersey weather. Kindly clarify above questions about Queens Lace Picotee thanks |

Hi waavman,  You can find growing information and photos here at our database entry for Crepe Myrtle (Lagerstroemia 'Queens Lace') This tree will grow 15 to 30 feet in height. I don't know what the growing zone is for you in New Jersey but Crepe Myrtle usually do well in zones 7 and higher. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Based on the pictures you sent , it does NOT look like one tree with a canopy. But seems to appear like a bush with multiple stems and so appears more like a bush than a tree. Is there a picture of a fully grown single tree of Queens Lace Picotee crape myrtle instead of mutiple trees planted next to each other like in the picture which makes it look more like a bush than a single tree thanks |

| That's the common growth habit of Crepe Myrtles, they send out many suckers; to get the single trunk form of tree, you have to remove the suckers. Our database currently has no photos of a single trunk tree. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |
