Thanks dandoucette for the insight! From your help, I was able to deduce this to a Royal Burgundy Barberry.

This is a red leaf version of the normal Berberis vulgaris. I've provided some general ID on your spottings. This should help you with a search for a more specific ID. Welcome to Noah Riften.
