Excuse the bad picks but couldn't be bothered doing them again

Re: Dwarf Crepe Myrtle
Lovely!! Probably my favourite tree for bonsai. I have just acquired one from PeterB and can’t wait until autumn. Mine are good indicator trees too, heat stress is displayed early and prompts an early watering occasionally. I didn’t know water trays were a thing for these!

Re: Dwarf Crepe Myrtle
Impressive blooms and tree, Mike! Do you only keep it in the tray when it's flowering?
