Crepe Myrtle Tree

[Carol S]

Hi:

Are the leaves and/or blooms from a Crepe Myrtle tree (Lagerstroemia Indica) poisonous?

Thank you for any information regarding this.

Since they are in the same family as eucalyptus, I would presume that crepe myrtle is toxic to torts

This is what the ASPCA has to say about it:

"non-toxic to dogs, cats and horses"
