Red Barked Dogwood Siberian Pearls
A medium to large growing deciduous shrub, Cornus alba Siberian Pearls forms a thicket of red-barked stems. The early Summer flowers develop into clusters of white berries with a blue tinge. Provides striking, crimson Autumn foliage and the red stems will brighten up the winter garden. Ideal when planted where the winter sun can shine on the red stems.
