Lageremia indica L. commonly known as crepe myrtle, is an ornamental plant known for its attractive flowers and foliage. The fruit and seeds are also known to be obtained from the boot tree. The aim of this study was to study the fruit and seed morphology of Lagerstroemia indica. The study included analyzes of the quality of fruits and seeds of several Lagerstroemia indica plants and their different morphological methods. Research results show that the fruits of Lastroemia indica are small, dry capsules that split open along one side to reveal many small, winged seeds. The seeds are flattened and have a papery layer. The fruits and seeds of Lagerstroemia indica L. appear to be well adapted for wind dispersal.
