Cornus alba ‘Little Rebel’ is a compact and highly ornamental shrub, known for its luminous variegated foliage and excellent four-season interest. It develops a dense, rounded, and well-structured habit, perfectly suited for small gardens, borders, mass plantings, and foundation plantings. Its deciduous dark green foliage is finely edged with creamy white, bringing a touch of elegant brightness from spring to autumn. In winter, its bright red young stems offer a spectacular contrast with the snow, extending visual appeal out of season. Very hardy and perfectly adapted to Quebec's conditions, Cornus alba ‘Little Rebel’ is easy to cultivate, tolerates fresh to moist soils well, and is an excellent choice for structuring the garden with color, texture, and dynamism throughout the year.
