Usually I don't go to grocery store garden centers, the plants are never as nice and it is usually the same plants at every one. I always have to check at least a few times a year because occasionally I spot something like this.
Comments on this photo
It's more noticeable on newer growth and the foliage makes it harder to see right now. Once it gets bigger the reddish bark will be a little more noticeable in the canopy. It contrasts nicely with the leaves but it's kind of difficult to see in this picture.

Sounds like it would be a beautiful garden tree. I do not see the red bark, yet. It appears later I guess.
