I can't be sure what it is either, but at a guess,I'll take a stab at Salix hakuro nishiki 'flamingo' - if it is that, height and spread up to 2.5metres. This shrub is in the 'light prune' group, which just means a bit of a tidy up in early spring or winter,but I've a friend who hacks hers back later in the season by a foot or more. No idea how well it worked out over time, haven't seen her for a long time...
