Cornus stolonifera - Arctic Fire® Yellow Red-Osier Dogwood

A ray of winter sunshine for your landscape! Arctic Fire Yellow dogwood offers the same legendary durability as red-twig dogwood but brings a cheerful yellow option. Stunning on its own, or planted with Arctic Fire Red dogwood, it also brings a nice option for cutting for winter and holiday arrangements. Native to North America. Reasons to grow Arctic Fire® Yellow dogwood: one of the most shade-tolerant ornamental shrubs, tolerant of a wide range of soil conditions, bright yellow stems in winter add colour to the landscape.

Maintenance Notes: The best yellow colour appears on one- and two-year-old stems. To maintain a colorful display, you can do one of two things: one, cut the whole plant back to short stubs every other year. Two, cut out one-third of the oldest stems every year. This option is recommended if you planted your Arctic Fire® dogwood to provide coverage. Early spring is the best time to prune.
