Carolyn - I was just going over my Crape Myrtle photos and found two that might tempt you but they don't have the fall color. I received them from a DG friend, Lea, as very small (maybe 3 to 6") plants. They are supposed to get taller but so far one seems to be more of a spreading type (pictured here) while the other grows taller but it's still less than 2' tall after three years. They may be more easily kept in the garage over winter and watered lightly once a month. I'd try putting them in a box with paper or insulation around the pot.

Lea grew them from seed. This is Park's "Supersonic Mix":
