Yellow Twig Dogwood
Currently unavailable
Green foliage makes a good background or filler plant during spring and summer. Fall brings more interest as leaves turn orange, gold, red, and purple. Stunning golden yellow branches add great winter interest. Benefits from yearly spring pruning as best color is on newer growth. Unremarkable creamy white flowers can turn into white berries that are a great food source for birds. Prefers cooler, consistently moist soil.
