Redtwig Dogwood
This terrific year-round plant's most outstanding feature is its bright red winter stems. Spring flowers attract butterflies, and handsome summer foliage and vibrant red-orange fall color add interest in the landscape. Combine with variegated holly, astilbe and golden forest grass for a nice blend of color, texture and form.
