Fortunately for us, we live in a climate that allows us to plant a wide range of flowering trees from all around the U.S. and the world that produce purple, white, yellow, pink, and Red flowers, which is a favorite of ours (just check out our logo). Learn about some of our favorite red flowering trees below!    ### [**![Red Crape Myrtle Tree](https://blog.moonvalleynurseries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/120-2.png?width=350&height=350&name=120-2.png)Crape Myrtle**](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/products/trees/crape-myrtle-huge) The Crape Myrtle (Lagerstroemia)is our favorite, and the #1 selling flowering tree at Moon Valley Nurseries due to its ability to offer something for every season. The spring season is when this tree really shines with its large clusters of flowers (think football size) that cover the entire tree. The blooms are long and can last until late summer. At Moon Valley Nurseries, we offer this tree as a single-trunk or multi-trunk. Also, the Crape Myrtle trees grown at Moon Valley Nurseries are superior thanks to mildew resistance, which you will not find anywhere else. Back to the "something for every season," the Crape Myrtle can also be used as a shade tree in the summer, and in the fall, the foliage turns a showy bright orange. When it comes to a 'wow' factor in your landscape, this is the tree has no equals!     **[![Bottlebrush Blooms](https://blog.moonvalleynurseries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/121-1.png?width=350&height=350&name=121-1.png)](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/products/trees/lemon-bottlebrush-tree)[Lemon Bottlebrush Tree](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/products/trees/lemon-bottlebrush-tree)** Named for its bright crimson Bottlebrush shaped flowers, the Bottlebrush tree (Callistemon citrinus) is a perfect fit for most landscapes. Two aspects make the Bottlebrush a fantastic choice. It's the ability to create a massive amount of year-round shade because it's an evergreen tree and its red flowers that have a lemony scent to them. Pollinators, especially butterflies and hummingbirds, love this tree. Now, don't let the elegent and graceful appearance of this tree throw you off. The Bottlebrush is one of the hardiest trees around. It is drought-tolerant and can handle both cold and heat. At Moon Valley Nurseries, we offer this variety in tree form or as a shrub for a colorful privacy wall.  ### **[![Red Oleander Trees](https://blog.moonvalleynurseries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/122-1.png?width=350&height=350&name=122-1.png)](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/products/trees/oleander-tree)[Oleander](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/products/trees/oleander-tree)** These trees love the hot summer months, which makes them an ideal flowering tree for your landscape. The Oleander (Nerium oleander) displays a long-lasting bloom that comes in clumps of red, white, or pink. The flowers are vibrant and may extend into the wilder winter months. Ideally planted in groups or rows, the Oleander is an excellent tree for our customers who are seeking privacy hedges, area screens, and property borders because of the tree's ability to keep a thick coat of dark green leaves throughout the year. We offer tree and shrubs versions of the Oleander at Moon Valley Nurseries.     ## **Find the Best Trees for Your Area** If you have any questions about these red flowering trees or want to learn about more flowering options for your home, [visit your nearest nursery today](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/locations)or [schedule a consultation for your next design](https://www.moonvalleynurseries.com/designer-directory)!
