Growing Crepe Myrtle Shrubs from Cuttings?

Can I start 12" footings for crepe myrtle shrubs in containers on my porch this year and plant them in the yard when they're a bit bigger and more sturdy?

Start using cuttings 3-5 inches with rooting hormone. It may be next year before they are ready for the yard though.

Yes, you can. They can be even shorter. Use rooting hormone.

Absolutely !! Make sure the container is big enough to allow the roots to grow. It will probably take a year or two for them to grow big enough to transplant into the yard.
