I saw a small tree/bush today. some leaves were green and some were a beatiful deep pink. Any ideas cos I want one.
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

Could it have been a pieris, Shirlton?
Lovely shrub -- fits the pink-and-green leaves description, plus you get pretty white flowers too.
