Cornus sanguinea, commonly known as dogwood, is a vigorous deciduous shrub valued for its seasonal interest. It bears clusters of creamy white flowers in late spring to early summe r, followed by dark berries, while the fresh green foliage turns rich shades of red and purple in autumn. In winter, the bare stems often develop deep red tones, adding striking colour to the landscape. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and tolerates a wide range of soils, including moist conditions near ponds and wetlands. The flowers attract pollinating insects, and the berries provide food for birds, making it an excellent wildlife-friendly choice for naturalistic planting schemes. Show more
