About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Red twig dogwood shows how a shrub can contribute to a garden after its flowers and leaves are gone. The species commonly associated with this name, Cornus sericea, comes from North America and is valued for the colored young stems that stand out in winter landscapes. Its story is as much about seasonal structure as about blossom.

Place an identified plant where bare branches can be seen against an uncluttered background. Grouping stems can strengthen the winter effect, while a waterside or moisture-retentive planting reflects the habitats often associated with this dogwood. Seed-grown plants vary in stem intensity and habit; treat their developing character as part of the growing experience, rather than expecting an exact cultivar copy.
