Hi, I am an absolute novice in gardening and to be frank I couldn't tell a tree from a bush. I wonder if anyone can help me identify the issue with my tree. It's not leaving properly and I fear it's suffering either from a disease or malnutrition or an infestation of some kind. It's leaves are not properly formed on most branches. I have added some pictures. The nearby plants are starting to show similar signs so it makes me think that it's spreading and I need to cut down the tree to save the garden. Any advice on what this might be and how I can fix it would be much appreciated. Also if someone can tell me what type of tree this is it would be most welcome.

The green leaves have reverted and should be removed or eventually all the variegation will be lost. This tree can take a while to come into leaf in Spring and young growth is susceptible to damage by frost.
Hopefully it will soon develop into a very pretty tree for your garden.
