Variety description

10 August 2026

Variety JIB0616, also known by the commercial name Best Red, stands out against other representatives of the species due to its unusual foliage color. It is the first Lagerstroemia variety to combine saturated red inflorescences and very dark, near-black foliage.

The plant is used in ornamental gardening as a shrub or small tree. It is characterized by an average growth rate. Detailed agronomic data on disease resistance or specific agrotechnical indicators are absent in open publications.
