Common dogwood – Cornus sanguinea (Bare Root Plants) 60-90cm
Cornus sanguinea is a medium-sized, fast-growing, deciduous shrub with an upright, bushy habit. It has green ovate leaves that turn to seasonal shades of red in autumn, and flat clusters of small, white flowers in spring that are followed by black berries. The Common dogwood is often noted for its brightly coloured, red, young stems that emerge in the winter. Reaching a mature height of 5m and growing in full sun to partial shade in most, moist, well-draining soils, Cornus sanguinea is often found in British hedgerows. Ideal for planting in wildlife, cottage and informal gardens, the Common dogwood is favoured for its regular, seasonal interest.
