Cornus Alba 'Sibirica' is one of the most popular and striking winter-interest shrubs available. Renowned for its vivid coral-red stems, this hardy deciduous dogwood brings bold colour to the garden during the coldest months when most other plants are dormant. In spring and summer, it produces clusters of small creamy-white flowers followed by white berries in autumn, while its dark green foliage turns attractive shades of red and orange before falling to reveal its stunning winter framework.

This versatile shrub thrives in a wide range of conditions and is especially well suited to damp or waterside areas, borders, and wildlife-friendly gardens. For the most vibrant stem colour, hard prune (coppice) in early spring every one to two years, which encourages vigorous new growth with the brightest red bark.

Supplied as an established plant in a 3 Litre pot, ready for planting straight into the garden or a large container.
