Lagerstroemia Infinitini® Pink - Indian lilac with abundant flowering
Lagerstroemia indica Infinitini® Pink is a compact variety of Indian lilac, prized for its abundant and long-lasting flowering. It produces dense panicles of ruffled flowers in intense lilac-purple shades, which cover the plant from midsummer until early autumn, when most ornamental shrubs have already finished flowering.
Thanks to its compact size and elegant appearance, it is ideal for small gardens, borders, large pots, terraces, or as a standalone specimen. In addition to its spectacular flowers, the foliage takes on decorative shades of yellow, orange, and red in autumn.

📌 Note: Plants may be delivered with or without flowers, depending on the season and their natural stage of development. Flowering intensity depends on sun exposure, and young plants may need one or two seasons to reach their full flowering potential.
During heatwaves, Lagerstroemia indica may naturally lose some of its leaves or develop leaves with slight cosmetic imperfections in response to very high temperatures and heat stress. This phenomenon is temporary and does not affect the plant's viability. With proper care, the plant quickly produces new foliage and resumes normal growth.
