Dogwood, Red Twig, Bailey

Cornus sericea ‘Baileyi’

A versatile, multi-stemmed shrub prized for year-round interest and seasonal drama. In late spring, flat clusters of delicate white blooms cover the branches, attracting pollinators before giving way to small whitish berries that feed songbirds. During summer, it carries a canopy of deep green foliage that transitions to red-purple tones in fall, adding seasonal color. As leaves drop in winter, the plant reveals one of its most striking features: vivid cherry-red stems that glow against neutral backdrops or snow, making it a winter focal point.
