Arctic Fire® Red dogwood (Cornus sericea, formerly known as C. stolonifera) has beautiful red stems and a compact habit and is at its peak in the winter sunlight. This dwarf variety reaches just 3-5' feet rather than the 8-10' of conventional red-twig dogwood. Its smaller size makes this variety a great breakthrough for smaller gardens or residential landscapes. Tolerates a wide range of soil and light conditions. Plant a few extra to use in winter arrangements and holiday dècor!

  • 3-5 feet tall and 3-5 feet wide at maturity
  • Hardy in zones 2-7, be sure to check your USDA zone to ensure success
  • Plant in full to part sun (4+ hours daily)
  • Space plants 4-5 feet apart for best results
  • Produces white flowers during late spring
  • Maintains dark green foliage spring to fall
  • Blooms on old wood
  • Great for cut flowers, landscapes, borders, mass plantings, winter gardens, containers, rain gardens
  • Resists deer
  • Native to north america, produces decorative berries, winter interest, cold tolerant, fall interest, clay tolerant
  • Shrubs shipped Nov-Apr will arrive dormant; shrubs shipped Apr-Oct will arrive green or in bloom

Care: The best red color appears on one and two year old stems; older stems will turn corky and brown. To maintain a colorful display, you can do one of two things: one, cut the whole plant back to short stubs every other year. Two, cut out one-third of the oldest stems every year. This option is recommended if you planted your Arctic Fire® dogwood to provide coverage. Early spring is the best time to prune.If desired, apply a granular fertilizer formulated for trees and shrubs at pruning time.
