Why my dynamite crape myrtle buds are white and not opening?
I live in the suburb of Atlanta and it is very hot now. We bought and plant 2 crape myrtle a week ago and now some buds are turning white when the flowers are red and on the other tree the buds are green and are just not opening and their leaves are curled. Could it be powder mildew, but they are supposed to be resistant to that disease?! Do you think the plant might be dying or some fungicide or else will help it to be healthy? Also I don’t see any new growth of leaves but some buds just stay green and don’t open or are white. Thanks for any help
dynamite crape myrtle are red flowers so it is not suppose to be white and there were some red flowers when we bought it.
probably a combination of the stress from being relocated and the heat.
it is a little late in the year to transplant crape myrtles. you will defiantly have to fight the heat. water well and dont apply water to the foilage
