What to Know About the Plant
The Dynamite Crepe Myrtle is a deciduous tree with deep green leaves that turn a striking red-orange in the fall, providing a show-stopping display of autumn color. This medium-sized tree can reach a height of 10-12 feet, making it a versatile addition to any landscape. Its upright growth habit and smooth, peeling bark give it a unique and elegant appearance that will enhance the beauty of your garden.
Enhancing your Fruitscape
Incorporate the explosive beauty of the Dynamite Crepe Myrtle into your fruitscape for a stunning contrast of colors and textures. Pair this ornamental tree with fruit trees like Cherry, Peach, or Plum for a dynamic combination of ornamental and edible plants. Mix in berry plants such as Blueberries or Raspberries to add a touch of sweetness and color to your landscape design. Tropical plants like Bananas or Pineapples can bring a bold, exotic flair to your garden, while herbs like Basil or Mint provide fragrant foliage and culinary delights. Together, these plants create a vibrant and diverse fruitscape that will delight the senses and enhance the beauty of your outdoor space.

Growing Guide
Currently, we only have growing guides for our edible plants.  We are working on them for our ornamental & landscaping plants, and will add them in the near future. Contact us if you have questions on how to plant and nurture your Crepe Myrtle Trees, and we will be glad to have one of our gardeners assist you.
Ornamental & Landscaping Plants at Just Fruits & Exotics
Although Just Fruits and Exotics has been providing ornamental and landscaping plants to customers at our nursery since we added “Exotics” to our name in the 1990’s, we never had them available to our customers online.
However, September of 2018, with the launch of our updated Just Fruits and Exotics website, we added many of our ornamental and landscaping plants to our online store for our customers nationwide.  We encourage you to “Fruitscape†your yards, mixing edibles and ornamentals to make your own edible garden.
Shipping Restrictions
Unfortunately, We Cannot Process Orders to California, Hawaii, Alaska, or Internationally: Please note that due to specific agricultural regulations, we’re unable to ship any plants to the states of California, Hawaii, and Alaska, or outside the United States. Additionally, citrus trees can only be shipped within the state of Florida.
Shipping Information
Before Your Plants Arrive: You can find many guides on unpacking, planting, & care, on our growing guides page.
The Journey From Our Nursery to Your Door: We NEVER ship our plants bare root. Your plant will travel in the very container in which it was nurtured. We thoroughly prune and water them before packing, and make sure they’re well wrapped to retain moisture during transit. It’s as though you’ve personally collected them from our nursery!
Choose Your Ship Date: We understand you’ll want to be available when your plant arrives. Our checkout process features a handy calendar that allows you to choose the Monday on which you want your plant to ship. Depending on your location, you’ll likely receive your plant by Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of that week. Once shipped, UPS will generate a tracking number and send it to the email you provided. You can then follow your plant’s journey and ensure someone is available to unpack it on arrival day.
