Cornus alba ‘Sibirica’

Siberian Dogwood in 9cm Pot - Year Round Appeal

• The Cornus 'Sibirica' is a deciduous plant that produces a thicket of striking slender red stems that become a bright crimson in the Winter giving it all year round appeal. During the Spring and Summer, it produces ovate lime green leaves and pretty white flowers. Its leaves then turn a reddish colour in the Autumn and bluish white berries form. This lovely dogwood looks stunning planted in groups, beside water or in Winter border arrangements.
• To produce the best stem colour, it's advised to cut new growth back hard within 5-7 cm from the ground in March and apply a generous amount of mulch of well rotted garden compost or horse manure around the base of the plant.
