Thinking of planting a deciduous small tree or large shrub as a sun

for my pergola. The plant would ideally grow to a height of 2-3m with a
similar spread. I'm heading towards a burgundy/green themed garden, so
foliage containing these colours would be good. I was thinking maybe a
flowering plum..

I saw a gorgeous burgundy-flowered crepe myrtle the other day. Maybe
something
along those lines? Or were you especially interested in a native???
Not particularly, although something hardy that doesn't need a lot of water
would be good.
