Cornus sericea 'Baileyi'

Family: Cornaceae, Genus: Cornus

Description:

Cornus sericea 'Baileyi' is a deciduous shrub known for its striking flame-red stems in winter. It grows quickly to a compact size, making it a popular choice for gardens. In spring, it produces milky-white flowers that attract butterflies, followed by white fruits with a blue tinge that are favored by birds like the American Goldfinch. The foliage transitions from green in spring and summer to a reddish-purple in fall. This shrub thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. It is cold-resistant and should be pruned in late winter or early spring to maintain its shape and encourage new growth.
