Description
Cornus controversa Variegata is a small, deciduous tree growing up to 6-8m in height. Its architectural tiered appearance makes it the perfect specimen or focal point in any garden or parkland. Brought here from China and Japan, it has been grown in the UK & Ireland since the late 19th Century.
In spring, green, elliptic leaves appear alternately on the branches followed by clusters of tiny, white, star shaped flowers in May/ June. The flowers have a scent which attracts the insects for pollination. Green berries ripen to blue-black in autumn and provide a valuable food source for birds. The variegated foliage is green edged with cream and will also turn to reds and purples giving a beautiful autumn show.
Once the branches are bare, Cornus controversa still makes an attractive tree due to its ornamental, tiered form.
