Thai Crape Myrtle
Thai Crape Myrtle (Lagerstroemia floribunda)
The Thai Crape Myrtle is a beloved tropical tree known for its delicate, paper-like flowers and smooth, mottled bark. It symbolizes resilience and gentle beauty, often seen gracing the landscapes of Southeast Asia.
- Silk-like Petals: Its blossoms feature uniquely ruffled, thin petals that transition beautifully from soft purple to white.
- Strong Heartwood: The fine-grained, brownish-grey wood is incredibly dense and durable, traditionally used for high-strength tools and structures.
- Textured Bark: The silvery-grey bark naturally peels in thin flakes, offering a rustic yet sophisticated organic pattern.
Flowering: June – October (A vibrant canopy of purple and pink).
Leaf Shedding: December – February (The tree stands bare before renewed growth).
In Thailand, it is a "Tree of Prosperity" and the official tree of Saraburi province. It is traditionally used in folk medicine to balance the elements, with its flowers believed to soothe the heart and its leaves used to nourish the spirit.
