I don't know what this tree is called, but it is unusual in that it blooms in mid-Summer, unlike all the other flowering trees tht bloom in the Spring. I took the picture with my iPhone from my car window. That's why it's not so great. I was hoping someone would tell me what it was. Tat--you know about such things!
Could be crape myrtle, but I'm not sure.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagerstroemia
ReplyDeleteMy tree knowledge is very, very limited.
