Flowers will ring in Wei Zi.

Yang Wanli, a poet in Song Dynasty

It's better to be infatuated, but exposure to pressure and bullying is particularly inclined. Who said that flowers bloom for a hundred days and crape myrtle grows for half a year?

The flowers in Wei Zi are red, purplish red and occasionally white. Petals are wrinkled, with irregular cracks on the edges, strung on the branches. Yang Wanli, a poet in the Song Dynasty, praised: "It is better to be infatuated, especially to expose and oppress the wind." Who knows that flowers bloom for a hundred days and crape myrtle grows for half a year. "In midsummer, the string of red flowers rippled among the green leaves, changing the single color in the garden and having a different taste. Lagerstroemia indica is planted in some large green spaces in urban areas, which enriches the colors of summer gardens.

When Lagerstroemia indica grows up, the trunk epidermis falls off and is smooth and skinless. A slight collision or a breeze will make the whole tree tremble and even make a faint "giggle" sound. This is a systemic reaction of its "ticklish", so it is also called "ticklish tree". Interested readers may wish to have a try.

Lagerstroemia indica is drought-tolerant, waterlogging-tolerant, light-loving and fertilizer-loving. It has strong resistance to sulfur dioxide, hydrogen fluoride and nitrogen, and can inhale harmful gases. It is the most ideal tree species for urban greening and can also be used as bonsai.
