Cornus Stolonifera Flaviramea
The Cornus Stolonifera Flaviramea is a beautiful, dense shrub which shows lovely rich golden stems in winter. It is a very hardy plant which is adaptable to most conditions and soil types. It can be grown in sun or shade and will thrive in most fertile, well drained soils. The plant bears eye-catching stems which are very useful for providing winter colour to parks or gardens. It is particularly effective in winter when grown next to Cornus Alba (red stems).
