Care guide
Quick ID
Variegated shrub dogwood (*Cornus*). Cream-edged green leaves; red winter stems.
Sun & Site
Full sun to part shade; moist soil, tolerates wet. Afternoon shade reduces variegated-leaf scorch in Draper's sun.
Pruning & Shaping
Renew for stem color: cut ~1/3 of the oldest stems to the base in late winter. Remove any reverted all-green shoots.
