Cornus mas Variegata (Variegated Cornelian Cherry)
Common name: Variegated Cornelian Cherry
Species: Cornus mas
Cultivar: Variegata
First recorded in 1838 this stunning small tree won the Award of Garden Merit in 2002 and 1981.

One of the best examples of a mature specimen can be seen in the Bath Botanic Garden, fairly close to the Malus trilobata!

The leaves are beautifully white margined and the variety, like its parent plant, is free fruiting.

It prefers a sheltered spot and is best kept away from intense direct sunlight where it can scorch so a dappled shade would be perfect.

It is so striking it is always the first tree you notice in a collection.

Mature height: 3-5m
