This article has all the info about the conditions that will help your crepe myrtle thrive. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/crepe-myrtle/crepe-myrtle-care.htm. Since this tree grows rather shallow roots, you may want to leave some space between the tree and your fence. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/crepe-myrtle/crepe-myrtle-root-system.htm
