Dogwood
Genus: Cornus
Species: alba
Variety: 'Sibirica'
Plant Type: Deciduous, Shrub
Incredibly easy to grow almost anywhere, it's justly famous for its stunningly bright red winter bark, which really stands out even in shady areas. The green leaves also have lovely smokey red autumn colours. Prune hard every few years for a nice bushy plant and thus maximum colour.
