Lagerstroemia Dancing in the Dark® ‘Red Hot’ is a compact crepe myrtle celebrated for its flawless near-black foliage and masses of vivid red blooms from summer through fall or first frost. The striking contrast creates a vibrant display, enhanced by orange-red fall tones, making it perfect for hedges, specimens, containers, driveways, or patios. With a tidy upright habit reaching 3m tall by 2.5m wide, it's low-maintenance, heat- and drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and attracts pollinators in full sun and well-drained soil.
