Cornus controversa 'Variegata' Cornus controversa 'Variegata'

Arbore mic, a cărui ramificare orizontală, cu ramuri suprapuse, duce la un port deosebit. În cele din urmă, coroana devine la fel de lată ca și înălțimea sa. Crengile tinere se transformă din verde în maro verzui. Frunzele alterne au o formă neregulată, iar marginile alb-argintii conferă arborelui o valoare ornamentală deosebită. Frunzele tinere sunt ușor colorate în roz. Corimbii mari de flori în formă de umbeliță pot fi urmați de mici fructe de pădure de culoare albastru închis. Cu toate acestea, fructificarea este foarte variabilă și, cu siguranță, nu este garantată în Țările de Jos. Din cauza scurgerii timpurii a sevei, tăierea trebuie să aibă loc vara sau toamna. Rădăcini superficiale, cu un sistem radicular fin.
