I would like some help to identify the cultivar of hornbeam I have. I have one known korean hornbeam which has dark leaves and the light green one is the one I'm uncertain of. Any help would be appreciated.

They both look like Carpinus Coreana to me with the rounded leaves,maybe the pale one is fertilized different or different watering,soil maybe.Or could be it’s own animal

Both look like C. coreana, what you are seeing is the difference between different seedlings of the same species. Very few Carpinus are propagated asexually, so I doubt that either is a named clone. You just have 2 C. coreana seedlings.
