Gold Dust Aucuba Tree making it a strong mid-borderA foliage shrub that lights up the shade. Gold Dust Aucuba is one of those evergreen shrubs that can change the entire feel of a darker planting bed. Its glossy green leaves are splashed with bright yellow flecks, giving the plant a speckled, almost painted look that stands out beautifully in shade and filtered light. When the rest of a shady border feels too flat or too green, this shrub helps wake it up. Evergreen structure keeps it useful all year.
