It reminds me of a variegated crassula aka jade plant.

These are native to South Africa.* Have you a picture of the entire tree?

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
Yes, I do have a picture showing the plant. As you can see it is a tall upright plant. I would say the plant in this picture is close to 3 feet tall. Thank you for all your help.

I wish the picture was bigger, though even if it was, I'm not sure I could id it.* It's driving me nuts!* You mentioned that it's a Texas native and I'm wondering how you know that.* Maybe you just see it growing wild and think it's native?* Many wildflowers aren't natives.*
I'm thinking that it's in bloom now.
Many herbaceous perennials are semi-woody and can grow to 3' or more.* How about a euphorbia - snow on the mountain?* Look anything like this?* Click on the pics at the bottom too.

[align=left]You are correct, I do believe, it is Snow on the Mountain. Thank you so much for your help. By the way, yes it is in bloom at this time. You too are correct in that I was just assuming it was a Texas native. Again, thank you.[/align]

Jim, that's great!* I looked at hundreds of pics of wildflowers before I found it.* It is a Texas native though.* Here you go!
