‘Basham’s Party Pink’ is said to be a cross between ‘Near East’ and Lagerstroemia fauriei dating back to 1965. Large lavender-pink blooms on a vigorous tree with hybrid cold-hardiness and cleanliness. One of the lesser known of the fauriei hybrids, but ‘Basham’s Party Pink’ has enjoyed a loyal following in Texas for decades.
