Growing New Trees

Question

If I transplant the little plant sprigs that pop up around my tree, will they grow up to be big crepe myrtle trees?

Answer 1

They will grow into big trees, but they may not be the same as the tree you have. If your crepe myrtle is a grafted tree, the root stock and suckers will be different than the mother tree. When you dig them up, make sure they have some roots.
