Description

Redstem Dogwoods are a large, upright shrub with year round interest. Small, fragrant, white flowers emerge in spring on deep red stems. This shrub rapidly grows up to 10′ tall. The long, green leavest turn burgundy in the fall. They produce clusters of drupes in the summer that attract birds as well as providing a suitable habitat for many different animals. They have a tendency to spread through stoloniferous roots underground. Improved stem color for extended winter interest. They prefer organically rich, moist soils in full sun for best flower and fruit production. This shrub can typically tolerate heavier shade situations. Pruning is not necessary, but encouraged in order to keep the plant a certain size.Photo courtesy of Spring Meadow Nursery, Inc.
