Here are a few of the many different variegated trees I am currently growing:

Color Contrasts
Carnival Maple
Carnival Hedge Maple has some of the most attractive leaves that can be found on a tree. The only downside is the tree is growing very slowly.
Old and New
The European Beech in the yard has started to leaf out. The new leaves and old leaves add a contrasting visual to this tree. European Beeches seem to be one of the few deciduous trees that I grow that retain some leaves throughout the winter.
Ohio Buckeye Spring Season
Ohio Buckeye is one of the first trees to leaf out in spring. Some of the trees are also starting to put on a flower display.
Old Titan
The largest tree on this Oasis is an Eastern Cottonwood tree. The extreme storms of the past 5 years has heavily damaged this tree.
Ground Flowers
The Pear trees are starting to have their flower petals fall to the ground. Looks like a late spring snow.
Zestar Apple Flowers
The Zestar! Apple tree should be productive this year with all these flowers. Zestar Apples mature in early August in my area.
3 Cherries
3 sour cherries in the pic below are loaded with flowers. The North Star Cherries are bush-like while the Montmorency Cherrry is taller and tree-like.
Radiant Crabapple
The Radiant Crabapple puts on a good show of pink flowers every spring. The leaves also have an attractive color throughout the season.
