One of the most spectacular of the Dogwood varieties, Cornus sanguina Winter Flame is a must have plant for any winter garden. Its bare woody stems are fiery oranges & reds that contrast wonderfully against the snow & ice, & can be complimented by being planted alongside other varieties of Dogwood with different coloured stems. However, this attractive shrub is not just a winter plant. In spring fresh green shoots emerge & the lush foliage then becomes a backdrop for early summer white flowers that are followed by glossy, black berries. In autumn, before the leaves fall, to reveal the brighly coloured stems, the foliage turns red. It is a great shrub for the back of wide garden borders.  

Height: 3m &40;10&41;. Spread: 2.5m &40;8&41;.

Cornus sericea ' Baileyi' is a shrub that offers all year round interest. In spring clusters of white flowers appear, which are replaced with white berries later in the season, when the fresh green foliage turns to autumn shades of red & violet. As the leaves fall the wood stems are revealed & throughout winter become a striking garden feature as the brilliant red bark contrasts against the snow & ice. An ideal Dogwood for medium sized gardens.

Height: 200cm (79). Spread: 400cm (157).
