Hello. Can anyone tell me what this is? I just moved recently and I'm still trying to figure out what all the flowers and shrubs are.
Thank you

Not positive, but the leaf and flower look like Crepe Myrtle. Do a little Google search and see if you agree.
Yes Jade your right it's a Crepe Myrtle and a pretty one at that love the dark red flower's.
Jaxon that is one pretty shrub. TFS
Thirding the crepe myrtle id, and that one is a beauty.
Whew, glad that I got agreement there. They aren't hardy in Ontario, but since we are in the states now I have seen lots of them around. I think that the bark is very interesting as they age. We saw some beauties in Williamsburg last year and I was very intrigued by them.
Thank you so much!!! I wasn't sure and I am very glad to find it is a crepe myrtle since I have seen mature ones that are so pretty.

Looks like a pretty good pruning job to me. I think he helped the bush more than he hurt it. It will be more full than it was before.
