Cornus alba 'Nightfall'
Cornus 'Nightfall' is a striking deciduous shrub providing colour and structure across several seasons. In spring, it produces dark green leaves with a soft grey underside, which gradually deepen to rich purple tones as the season progresses.
In autumn, the foliage develops vibrant seasonal colour before falling to reveal brilliant red stems. These colourful stems provide valuable winter interest, standing out particularly well against pale paving, evergreen planting or a backdrop of winter frost.
With its upright habit, 'Nightfall' is well suited to use as a feature shrub, informal hedge or screening plant. Hardy and easy to grow, it performs reliably in a wide range of garden soils and positions, making it a versatile choice for adding year-round colour and structure.
