An excellent small tree for use as a specimen or color accent; features white-variegated foliage, bright yellow flowers in very early spring before the leaves and red berries in summer, compact habit of growth. Variegated Cornelian Cherry Dogwood has clusters of yellow flowers along the branches from late winter to early spring before the leaves. It has attractive white-variegated dark green foliage throughout the season. It produces red berries from early to mid summer. The peeling brown bark adds an interesting dimension to the landscape.
Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Prefers moist, organically rich soils. Variegated foliage may scorch in full sun. Benefits from a 2-4” mulch which will help keep roots cool and moist in summer. (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
