Some crepe myrtles hybridized by the US National Arboretum are able to survive in Hardiness zones 7/6 but IMO, I would still use protection for them if possible (the shrub ones most likely) with burlap wrap and leaves inside the burlap.

Thanks for the link. It helped me identify one of the crape myrtles in my yard (Choctaw) based on the description in the link you provided. I'm still trying to identify the other one. None of the other descriptions matched that one. I've also planted one myself now that is a newer small variety (Moonlight Madness) that has very dark maroon, almost black foliage and white flowers. I love crape myrtles. There are so many varieties
