How do you revive a crepe myrtle after replanting?

1. Water the plant thoroughly immediately after planting. This will help to settle the soil around the roots and prevent them from drying out.

2. Apply a layer of mulch around the plant. Mulch will help to retain moisture in the soil and protect the roots from extreme temperatures.

3. Keep the plant in a shady spot for the first few weeks after planting. This will help to reduce stress on the plant and prevent it from drying out.

4. Fertilize the plant according to the package instructions. Fertilizing will help to promote growth and help the plant to establish itself in its new location.

5. Prune the plant in the fall. Pruning will help to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged branches.

6. Repot the plant if it becomes root-bound. A root-bound plant will not be able to grow to its full potential.

7. Monitor the plant for signs of stress. Signs of stress include wilting, yellowing leaves, and dropping leaves. If you notice any of these signs, take steps to correct the problem.
