'The Shickle Bush' | Pink Velour Crape Myrtle



For our first anniversary we got a gift card from Lowe's from the "Shickle family".
During our garden department tour at Lowe's we found this nice Pink Velour Crape Myrtle bush. It was planted the same evening and we call it the "Shickle bush".
Thanks Mike and Rose!
