Late bloomer

  

Even in this plant hardiness zone, the crape myrtle goes bare in the winter.  Every spring it fools us into wondering if it's dead.  It waits until late May to put out leaves.

 

Then we wonder if it's every going to bloom again.  Now, middle of June, it's just starting to put out flower clusters.

 

It will bloom by July.
