Arctic Fire® Red Dogwood is a captivating shrub that provides year-round interest in any landscape. In spring, it blooms with delicate white flowers that attract and support pollinators, followed by clusters of white berries that add visual appeal. Its compact habit makes it ideal for smaller spaces, while its vibrant red stems stand out beautifully in winter. In fall, the foliage transforms into striking red hues, adding extra seasonal color. Perfect for winter arrangements and holiday décor, this versatile shrub offers a stunning display of color and texture throughout the year.

Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!

 

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. Early spring is the best time to prune. Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food every spring.
