The Dwarf cornel. A great ground cover plant for a woodland or shady area. Deeply veined leaves are produced in whorls providing a good, dense covering. The actual flowers are green and fairly uninteresting but they are surrounded by brilliant white, showy bracts, occasionally suffused with pink. Flowers are followed by round, bright red, fleshy fruits.
