Emily,

If you are in the Philadelphia area like many of us on this board, most of us don't see any leaves popping out on our crape myrtles until around May 1. So be patient!

Also, this was a bad winter - so if your crape myrtles only sprout from the bottom, you can cut off the tops and let them re-grow from the bottom. But wait until June or July before you cut anything off. They sometimes have tremendous powers of regeneration from what appears to be dead branches!
