Planted 2 30-gallon Natchez Crepe Myrtles in front yard.
The mulch ring around them is a 6 foot diameter circle.
What’s something low maintenance that I can’t pant at the base of crepe myrtle in that circle that will not need to be watered once established, or will need to be watered very rarely?
I have sprinkler system in regular landscaping but I am not running water lines to these 2 circles.

I have some established ones and never water them.

I dont know the answer to your question, but I would move that one close to the house before it is too late.

I am fighting two 15 year old Natchez whites that were planted too close. It has come time for drastic measures for the one on the East end of my house.

Most people use Blue Leriope, Veragated Leriope, or Daylillies as the plants arranged in a circle around your major landscape points..They are extrememly low maintainance and flowers can be offset just inside of them to accent the circles slope leading up to the tree
