Please identify this bush

Hi All,

This lovely bush was 4 ft tall and equally wide. Please note that the bush has pink and white leaves and no flowers. Someone identified it as Jungle Jalebi but most nurseries dont seem to know that name. Can anyone help please.

I think its Breynia disticha... Snow bush

Izhar is right, this is breynia.A 10 year old specimen is growing at my house and what a beauty it is.Most of our nursery men would recognize this by the name of jungle jalebi.

Thanks so much. I have managed to get my hands on it finally after getting three wrong plants. Thank you for the name.

Would you know about the growth of this bush, is it fast growing? Any care tips?

Thank you

Yeah , neglect and enjoy

You can try to train it as a bonsai.

Bonsai? But its not woody.
