The showy year-round colors of Garden Glow Dogwood, Cornus, will bring your landscape to a new level. Vivid chartreuse yellow leaves pop in the spring. In summer, dainty white flowers begin appearing with flowering continuing throughout the season. In fall, the festive foliage turns a rich burgundy red. But wait; the show is not over yet! Once the foliage drops in the winter, its gorgeous red twigs are revealed, perfect for use in flower arrangements or just to add a little color to normally bland winter landscapes. The ideal shrub for year-round interest.

Garden Glow Red Twig Dogwood grows 4-5′ tall and wide. It can be used as a hedge, foundation plant, accent in a mixed garden, or backdrop. East to grow in sun to part shade.

Plant Red Twig Dogwoods in rich moist soils. Once established they are tolerant of many different soil conditions including dry or some standing water. The best stem color appears on younger stems. Prune out stems that are older than 3 years to maintain the best color. Can also be trimmed to the ground in winter or early spring. This will prevent flowering and fruiting, though.
