Hey, can you tell me which tree is better, the red rocket or the dynamite crape myrtle?
I think Red Rocket looks better because it can grow to be 30 feet tall. It's a great choice for screening or as the main attraction. But if you're working with a small garden, you might want to consider the Dynamite Crape Myrtle. It grows to be about 20 feet tall, so it's more suitable for smaller spaces.
I think dynamite crape myrtle is absolutely gorgeous! It grows upright and rounded, and its flowers are a beautiful shade of red!
My home area is in USDA zone 6 or so and my feeling is that the Red Rocket is the best, so if you are in the same area as me you can plant Red Rocket instead of Dynamite.
What matters most is your own personal preferences, because these plants have different characteristics. Red rocket plants grow upright, while dynamite plant growth is more rounded.🌳✨
Have you ever thought about how fast different plants grow? I'd love to have the Red Rocket crape myrtle because it grows up to 5 feet per year, while the Dynamite crape myrtle only grows 3 feet per year 🌸
Personally, I'm a fan of Dynamite Crape Myrtle.
