A red-twig dogwood cultivar with the bright red stems that color the winter landscape after the leaves are gone. And what wonderful leaves - bright green with a wide and irregular golden edge! In spring, clusters of tiny white flowers appear followed by white fruit that birds love. This deciduous shrub, to 6-10 ft x 6 ft, can be multistemmed or trained as a small, handsome tree. Best in bright light with protection from afternoon's hottest sun and regular summer water. Tolerates a wide range of soils, including boggy situations. Frost hardy in USDA zone 4.

Terrific brightly variegated gold and green leaves on red stems. Unchecked growth can be to 15' tall and wide, but responds well to hard pruning.
