I have had good luck with "Red Rocket" and "Dynamite" crepes.

I am planning on planting some flowering trees along a fence line. About
seven of them. I was thinking of crepe myrtles. I heard they can grow fast.

I was also thinking about planting some fruit trees along another fence
line. I was wondering if anyone has some good suggestions as to what
fruits grow well in Austin area.

Any ideas would be great. I'm not stuck on the crepe myrtles...i just want
some color and something that can grow higher than a 6 foot fence.

Thanks,
John
