Cornus sericea 'Silver and Gold'
Cornus sericea 'Silver and Gold' is a highly decorative native ornamental shrub, recognized for its striking contrast between its variegated foliage and its bright yellow winter stems. It forms a dense, spreading, suckering shrub, ideal for naturalistic beds, informal hedges, and four-season landscaping. Its medium green deciduous foliage edged with silvery white brightens the garden from spring to fall, before giving way to brilliant golden yellow stems in winter. Its discreet spring blooms are followed by white berries enjoyed by wildlife. Extremely hardy and perfectly adapted to Quebec conditions, Cornus sericea 'Silver and Gold' tolerates wet soils and is an excellent choice for combining biodiversity, structure, and lasting color.
