Cornus controversa 'Variegata'

Description

With tiers of light, not unlike a fountain or spotlit sculpture at night, a tree of such magnificence in form and texture as to make one nearly quiver (though the price already has you shaking). These represent grafted plants that we must bring in from Europe; thusly the price is high but worth every guilder. Best planted in a semi-shaded, somewhat protected site. DonÆt stake, donÆt prune; give it only patience and an occasional curtsy as you pass by. (I love to curtsy when IÆm by myself.)
