Cornus controversa ‘Variegata’ is slow-growing and, in time, makes a most beautiful small tree or large shrub with a distinctive yet graceful tiered habit. The leaves are attractively speckled with white and cream variegation and in summer, clusters of small, white flowers appear on the branches.

It is a perfect tree for patient gardeners and is well suited to small gardens. It enjoys sun or dappled shade and any fertile, well-drained soil.

    I rarely write reviews but I must recommend this excellent nursery. It is the best nursery I have used for online ordering. Rang them first with some questions and they were most helpful. Then did my order of heathers and they were sent and arrived promptly in great condition and are very healthy looking plants.
