The Cornus alba is an upright, deciduous tree with dark green foliage that fades to a delicate green with pinky cream overtones, occasionally turning red and orange in Autumn. Distinct heads of star shaped creamy white flowers develop in late spring, early summer that are followed by globe shaped white fruits and beautiful scarlet red shoots spread in winter. The Cornus alba is a hardy winter tree that likes the full sun, attracting birds and bees.
Packaged carefully and delivered in a 5 litre pot at the height of between 1.2m and 1.5m, our tree gift makes the ideal eco friendly present.
