Crepe Myrtle Burl

[SabertoothBunny]

First time I have even seen a real burl on a crepe myrtle bush. The size is impressive considering the plant species.

Not a crepe myrtle on my property nor one I would cut. Not enough to get a lot of any kind blank, just really cool.

I am not familiar with the tree but have some Pynima burl that comes from the Asian crepe mertle.

Looks more like a canker to me, it's caused by a fungus. https://arborscape.com/tree-growths-treatment/
