Can Lagerstroemia indica be potted? If so, how to plant it?

Potted Lagerstroemia indica needs dwarfing. Choose one-year-old robust seedlings and plant them in pots. After the seedlings are planted in the pot, they should be wiped to dry at the position 15-20cm from the ground. When axillary buds grow new branches on the trunk, choose three strong branches in different directions as the main branches, and smear or cut off the rest. When the main branch grows to 8- 10 cm, the core is removed to inhibit the extension of growth, promote the growth of lateral branches, and cultivate a compact, low, natural and happy crown. Lagerstroemia indica has strong germination ability and is extremely resistant to pruning, and the flower buds of Lagerstroemia indica form quickly. Therefore, alternate pruning can promote more branches and flowers.
