Family Cornaceae

Cornus alba 'Neon Burst' is a very bright ornamental shrub, sought after for its vivid, almost fluorescent yellow foliage and its strong decorative impact throughout the year. It develops a dense, rounded shrubby habit, perfectly suited for beds, informal hedges, and modern landscape designs. Its bright yellow deciduous foliage brightens the garden from spring to summer, then transitions to warmer hues in autumn. In winter, its bright red young branches take over, offering a spectacular contrast with the snow, ensuring significant four-season interest. Very hardy and well-adapted to Quebec conditions, Cornus alba 'Neon Burst' is easy to cultivate, tolerates cool to moist soils, and is an excellent choice for bringing color, structure, and dynamism to landscape designs.
