Price £ 80.00

Short description

red-barked dogwood 'Elegantissima' A very good value garden plant, with attractive white variegated leaves which always look bright and fresh, the leaves turn shades of pink and red in autumn. Can be grown as a medium shrub in which case white flowers and some berries may be seen. However, often grown for additional interest of winter stems. For best effect prune as described. The rich bright red stems work well if planted in a group, near water, or with other coloured stems. Plant in full sun or partial shade. Height and spread up to 3 metres x 3 metres if not coppiced. Coppiced plants reach 1-1.5 metres. Prefers moist soils and suited to heavy clays. If grown for winter stem colour, then stems should be cut to within 5-7cm of ground level each year in March, or if preferred select half one year and the other half the following year. this will maintain a structure and be less severe to the plant.
