Plant Type: Deciduous Shrubs

This new Tatarian dogwood from Bylands Nursery in British Columbia has attractive chartreuse foliage and is a compact selection growing 4-5’ tall. It has good sun and heat tolerance, retaining bright leaf color throughout summer. New leaves are tinged with bronze and the stems have a rich red hue early in the season. Fall foliage becomes a rainbow of purple, red, yellow and orange. In winter the stems turn glossy scarlet red. Unlike most C. alba, Neon Burst™ works well as a specimen plant or in large groupings.
