Cornus alba 'Elegantissima' Shrub
Cornus alba 'Elegantissima' provides a variety of interest year-round, particularly in winter when the red stems make a dramatic impact. It is a very hardy deciduous shrub with oval variegated leaves that are grey-green with a white margin. Clusters of tiny cream flowers form around May and June, which are then replaced by white berries. The leaves drop to reveal the bold red stems beneath that are the source of its common name, Red Barked Dogwood, and provide stunning winter interest.
'Elegantissima' will grow in most soil conditions, preferring well-drained soil. They are fast growing, producing a large shrub around 4 metres high x 4 metres wide in 10 years. Whilst the brightest winter bark is produced in full sun, they are content in partial shade. Dogwoods look great either individually or as a group for adding colour to winter borders.
We also offer other Dogwood shrubs with different coloured stems.
