I purchased this from my local nursery. It was labeled as a zuni crape myrtle. However, it doesn't look like any other zuni I'm seeing online, nor can I find crape with non-green leaves.

Can anyone confirm or negate this ID?
 
There are several crape myrtle out now with reddish to deep purple leaves. The only Zuni I know is a crab and this is definitely a crape.
 
Thank you all for commenting. I needed some variety and color in my collection and really fell in love on sight with these leaves.

This will be my first crape. Excited.
