Crapemyrtle is remarkably problem-free, especially if using resistant selections that are properly sited.  Nonetheless, a couple new problems have emerged and a few older issues continue to plague crapemyrtle.  Dr.  Gary Knox will discuss the major, minor and rare pests, diseases and disorders that affect crapemyrtle (other than crapemyrtle bark scale), along with possible management strategies. Room 165
