Yellow Twig Dogwood Tree

Yellow Twig Dogwood (Cornus sericea ‘Flaviramea’) is a striking deciduous shrub or small tree that adds dramatic winter interest to landscapes with its brilliant yellow stems. In spring, creamy white flower clusters appear, followed by attractive white berries in summer that attract birds and pollinators.

This cold-hardy and fast-growing plant turns golden to reddish in fall and offers excellent erosion control along banks and borders. It’s ideal for winter gardens, mixed shrub borders, or wet soil areas like rain gardens and streambanks.
