Crepe myrtle - progress

[Keep Calm and Ramify]

Will do for sure - and thanks for your feedback.
Your pics here have definitely inspired me to persist....I just gotta keep calm....and ramify.
All the best.

I agree about wiring them. Every branch I've wired on a crepe has slowed right down and then died back and with only minimal bending. I've got some wire on a heavier branch on mine now while it's dormant so hopefully it will stay put as I want to remove it before it leafs out
