Cornus alba 'Elegantissima'

Known as the 'Siberian Dogwood' a stunning deciduous shrub best known for its winter effect once all its leaves have dropped! This cornus has white/ green variegated leaves and small creamy white flowers in May. But the really stunningly dark purple red stems are its main attribute giving a cheer to the winter months, planted alongside other yellow, or orange stemmed dogwoods and other winter interest plants you can have colour even in the darkest months.
