Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a bud mutation of the Cornus alba Gouchaultii variety. The plant forms an upright, spreading shrub from 1.2 to 2.5 meters in height, sometimes reaching 3–4 meters. Young leaves have a golden-yellow margin, which becomes creamy-white with age, with a grey-green central part.

The plant blooms in May-June with small creamy-white flowers, forming white fruits. In winter, the shoots acquire a decorative purple-red color. The variety has high winter hardiness (USDA zone 4), is resistant to diseases and pests, and tolerates urban conditions, excessive moisture, and short-term drought.

It is used in landscape design for solitary and group plantings, and for creating hedges and borders. To maintain the brightness of the shoot color, the shrub requires periodic pruning of old branches.
