Thanks, gg! I found a great article on pruning crepe myrtles last week. The whole site is pretty interesting (and funny!), actually. It''s called the Grumpy Gardener. Here''s the link to the crepe myrtle article: link
I have more pics of the garden at home-I''ll post more soon!

thanks thing2, yes, please post, your new plants look great.
I''m going to get these Hopi crepes tamed.... planted them in 3 inch pots, they are now 5 feet, ready to be pruned into the elegant long legged crepe beauties, just have to overcome fear of the pruning shears..
