Where do i plant crape myrtles?

I just bought 2 crape myrtles and I am not sure where to plant them...thx

Where do i plant crape myrtles?
ANYWHERE!!! They love the sun. My driveway is outlined with them. They grow tall and are full of blooms from summer til frost. Trim the bottom limbs if you want them to look like trees. Or leave them alone , if you want them to look more like a bush. Easy to grow. Water when dry weather, fertilize occasionally but don't over do it.
Reply:full sun ,lotsa water, trim or don't trim ,make them the way you want them
Reply:Full sun, lots of water (even daily) and use a fertilizer made for hibiscus. I have several and love them.
Reply:You plant them where ever you like!! They will grow and grow! They can get tall, so maybe don't plant them under an awning or under utility wires!
Reply:I would plant one about 10 feet southwest of the outer perimeter of the smaller Japanese maple, and the other just beyond the berm in the northernmost corner.
Reply:Full sun. They love it!
