Crepe myrtle bark scale is a relatively new problem for crepe myrtles in the United States. This pest was recently introduced by way of Asia and looks like gray scales coating the tree branches. Bark scale damages the tree and can cause stress to the tree which can cause decline and possibly death.
However, these classic Southern trees can become plagues with problems and left with untreated pests or diseases can surely lead to decline and possible death. Pruning crape myrtles right after bloom is the most recommended pruning time and proper pruning methods are encouraged to alleviate any stress the tree then experiences.
Place the mug in the refrigerator and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes. You want the hot cocoa to be slightly chilled before adding it to the ice cube tray. 3.
Crape Myrtle Pruning
The crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica) is one of the most beautiful and popular flowering trees in Florida. Often called "the lilac of the South," this plant is tough, adaptable, and showy. Its blooms are large and long-lasting (up to one hundred days), and the tree has great fall color and attractive bark. It prefers a sunny, well-drained site and is relatively pest- and disease-free.
While the hot cocoa is cooling, prepare the milk mixture. In a separate cup or bowl, combine the milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved. 4. Once the hot cocoa is cooled, remove it from the refrigerator. Take the ice cube tray and carefully pour the hot cocoa into each compartment. Fill them about three-quarters of the way full, leaving some space for expansion when freezing. 5. Place the ice cube tray in the freezer and let it freeze for about 2 to 3 hours, or until the cubes are solid. 6. Once the hot cocoa cubes are frozen, remove the ice cube tray from the freezer. Gently pop out the cubes and transfer them to a serving dish or individual cups. 7. Optionally, add a dollop of whipped cream on top of each hot cocoa cube. 8. To enjoy the frozen magic cup, pour the milk mixture slowly over the hot cocoa cubes. As the milk hits the frozen cubes, it will melt them, creating a creamy and delicious drink. 9. Stir the mixture with a magic wand or spoon to further combine the flavors and create a magical swirl effect. 10. Sip and enjoy your frozen magic cup! The combination of the frozen hot cocoa cubes and the milk mixture will create a refreshing and delightful beverage. Note: You can get creative and add toppings or drizzles such as chocolate syrup, sprinkles, or crushed cookies to enhance your frozen magic cup..
