Answer 3

The USDA plant database has all the info you need about any plant that is in the USA. You may have to leave off the varigata portion and just type in Duranta repens.  The info will be the same as varigated plants are usually a hybrid and not a natural form. Just type in the name of your plant in the upper left hand corner and select if it is the scientific name or common name.
