Full Description
They are grown more for the colour of their stems in the winter. Eye catching beautiful coral, deep red stems. For best stem colouring, cut back new growth to within 5-7cm from the ground in March and mulch with well rotted garden compost around the base.
Aftercare
Bare root stock should always be watered well after planting and must be watered regularly during its first year of growth. Pruning is essential for best results with dogwood to show off their bright colours. You will be rewarded with brighter stems after their pruning. A good tough plant.
