Cornus mas ‘Variegata’
This Cornelian cherry, Cornus mas 'Variegata', has tiny, yellow, early spring flowers followed by gorgeous variegated foliage.

A unique variegated form of the Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas) with white to yellow margins and an extremely tough constitution. Young trees can’t decide if they’re shrubs or trees, so it’s best to prune to create an appealing tree-like branching structure. Clusters of tiny, yellow flowers in early spring.
