The most beautiful of all the true red flowering Crape Myrtles with an abundant display of almost iridescent red blossoms from early July to September.

The Red Rocket variety is highly mildew resistant and its dark green foliage sets off the true red blooms.
It will reach a mature height at 20 to 30 foot with a 10 to 15 foot spread. So if planting your Red Rocket Crape Myrtles as a screen, you will want to space them approximately 8 to 10 feet apart.
