Pollination Info
Pollination Information for Crape Myrtle Enduring Lavender - Lavender Blooms (Lagerstroemia indica Lavender)
Crape Myrtle Enduring Lavender, also known as Lagerstroemia indica Lavender, produces beautiful lavender blooms that attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Pollination Process
When the Crape Myrtle's lavender blooms open, they release sweet nectar that attracts pollinators. Bees are among the most common visitors to Crape Myrtle flowers, collecting nectar and pollen as they move from bloom to bloom. Butterflies are also attracted to the vibrant colors of the flowers and help in pollination as they feed on the nectar. Hummingbirds, with their long beaks, are well-suited to reach the nectar deep within the blooms and play a significant role in cross-pollination.
Benefits of Pollination
Pollination is essential for the production of seeds and fruits in plants. In the case of Crape Myrtle Enduring Lavender, successful pollination leads to the formation of seeds within the flowers. These seeds can then be dispersed to grow new Crape Myrtle plants. Additionally, pollination helps to ensure genetic diversity within the plant population, leading to healthier and more resilient plants.
Encouraging Pollinators
To encourage pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds to visit your Crape Myrtle Enduring Lavender plants, you can plant a diverse range of flowering plants in your garden to provide a continuous source of nectar throughout the season. Avoid using pesticides on or near your Crape Myrtle plants, as these chemicals can harm pollinators and disrupt the pollination process.

The crape myrtle was in perfect condition upon arrival. Can't wait to see it thrive in my garden!
Beautiful addition to my yard. Only reason for 4 stars is that the packaging was slightly damaged during shipment.
