ok, makes sense - I've been around a long time (old fart), and I've never seen a MJ plant anywhere near that color - when I used to occasionally haul a load of shrubs, it seems like there were purple versions there at the huge nursery (and, there is a nursery pictured in that background) - I suspect (just a guess) it is a variety of Japanese Maple, or something like that ... dunno, ya got me :jointsmile:
