We went for a wander around the local landowners estate on Sunday - and I spotted this rather attractive shrub/tree with dangly bits. Now I can't seem to find it in any of our books and wondered if anyone here is a tree expert (or has a better book). Plantsnap wasn't much help either or any of the tree apps I've been looking on.

Dear Diane,
I am pretty sure that this is a Styrax japonicus aka the Japanese snowball tree. Rather handsome shrub/small tree; widely available in several cultivars. It took all evening for the name to pop into the old noggin.
Regards Sally Wright.
