Variegated Red Twig Dogwood? http://www.flickr.com/photos/weretable/72535455/ http://www.readscreeknursery.com/images/CornusalbaIvoryHalo.jpg
My Daughter-in-law say's thank you (from another ex Austinite). I think she was a bit sceptical when I told one of you would figure it out quickly. Thanks again. barb
Agree with Saltcedar. If the variegation is white and green it may be Cornus alba Elegantissima. In your pics it looks like a yellow and green variegation, so it may be Cornus alba Spaethii. http://images.google.com/images?q=c...1I7SUNA_en-GB&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi http://images.google.com/imgres?img...n-gb:IE-SearchBox&rlz=1I7SUNA_en-GB&sa=N&um=1
There are multiple variegated forms of redtwig dogwood on the North American market. See Cappiello/Shadow, DOGWOODS (Timber Press), where they give preference to 'Argento-marginata' over 'Elegantissima' for the one cultivar.
