Cornus alba sibirica or red barked dog wood as it is better known, it is a garden stalwart for many people, and essential for providing a shot of bright structural colour in winter. These are great value for money, and provide a long-lasting display when little else can inject vibrancy to the garden. Plant them for a mass of stunning red stems all winter.
If you need something to add a shot of bright colour in the colder darker months then these Cornus dogwoods are a very good choice, looking good whatever the weather, they appear even brighter against a blanket of snow. In spring, fresh-green foliage erupts over the to cover stems and provide a good structural mix with other plants in the garden. These are great plants, supplied in approx 2-3 litre containers. Perfect for planting out in the garden or for displaying in seasonal planters. Why not try underplanted with some spring bulbs?
