variegated cornus
Variegated cornus are some of the most sought-after ornamental plants for New Zealand gardeners who want to add year-round interest, vibrant foliage, and architectural structure to their landscapes. Known for their striking colour contrast between creamy white, soft pink, or golden margins and lush green leaves, variegated cornus varieties are perfect for brightening up borders, creating eye-catching specimen plantings, or adding texture to woodland gardens. Their resilient growth, outstanding visual appeal, and ease of care help make variegated cornus a top choice among both novice and expert gardeners.
Cornus controversa variegata
Cornus controversa variegata, commonly referred to as the Wedding Cake Tree, features tiered branches that bear leaves that are variegated cream and green. The foliage retains this colouring until autumn, when yellow tones develop before the leaves fall. It typically grows to 6 m tall and 4 m wide and is usually trimmed to enhance the shape.
