Cornus florida 'Rainbow' is a compact, deciduous flowering dogwood valued for its striking variegated foliage, with fresh green leaves boldly edged in yellow that deepen to rich red and purple tones in autumn. In spring, it produces elegant white bracts surrounding small central flowers, followed by decorative berries later in the season. Perfect as a specimen tree for sheltered gardens, it brings year-round interest through foliage, flower, and autumn colour rather than winter stem colour.
