Default Cornus alba light requirements?

i am by no means an expert, in fact i am so new to gardening....i don't know
what i am doing here.

i have just ordered a cornus alba and i have read that they turn the
brilliant red in full sun.

i assume that they will still be colourful in patrial shade but obviously
not as red

Could anyone advise on this, please? I have a place in the garden where I
think one of the Cornus alba varieties might look good in winter, but the
plot gets no sun from September to March. Would this plant tolerate this,

as
I'd need to put in several plants?
