Plant Description: Vigorously growing shrub with bright yellow branches and stems that are especially noticeable in winter. Tiny white flowers appear in clusters in spring giving way to white berries. Although favored by birds, the berries are mildly toxic to humans and may cause stomach aches. Tolerant of a wide range of conditions but prefers medium to moist soils. The species, Cornus sericea, is synonymous with C. stolonifera and is native to Utah.
Hardiness Zone: 3 to 8
DESCRIPTION | The bright yellow stems on the younger growth of this multi-stemmed shrub provide striking winter color. White flower clusters adorn the green foliage in spring and are followed by white ornamental fruit. Bare stems are an excellent addition to seasonal flower arrangements. Use in shrub borders or mass plantings. Ideal for naturalizing. Deciduous. |
