Texas tree ID help!

Andrews, TX(Zone 8a)

Just got a small version of one of these!? Cool bark huh? I apologize for the crooked orientation, but you get the idea.

It appears to be a crepe myrtle from the bark and leaf shape. They come in several versions from very short to tree size and a great addition to any landscape.

I agree with Skeeter Crepe myrtle, the bark is very unique.

Thanks to both of you guys! I'm a tree idiot. Went to the library and got a ton of books.
Now that I've got a Crape Myrtle, I'll fit right in around here!

Thanks again!
