Thanks for that...I think you are correct. Some else mention
EUONYMUS.....Silver Queen..but I think it is the Cornus controversa
variegata.
Is a common name for it The Wedding Cake Tree would you know - or is

that
another Cornus?
Thanks again.
John.


Yes, you are correct. It is known as @The Wedding Cake Tree'.

TVM, Emerys.
I wonder why its called The Wedding Cake Tree?
John


Because it grows naturally in tiers or layers, like a wedding cake! We
planted one when we got married five years ago and it's grown fast and is
looking lovely.
