1 Gal. Yellow Twig Dogwood Shrub with Bright Golden Yellow Winter Stems and Large Fragrant Spring Flowers

Description

The Yellow Twig Dogwood is most highly prized for its vivid lemon-yellow stems that light up after dropping its leaves for the season, but also offers several other sought-after features including large fragrant white spring flowers, excellent red fall color and a high level of tolerance to both drought and wet soil. The bright yellow winter stems of this plant are often seen as a winter feature in landscapes, particularly where other ornamental plants will not grow due to high levels of water content in the soil. Pairs especially well next to Red Twig Dogwood shrubs, which highlights the yellow color and also tolerates overly wet soil. The bright yellow stems of this bush are often used in floral arrangements and fresh cut wreaths due to their color and ability to stay fresh for months after being cut. The large aromatic spring flowers attract all manner of pollinators including hummingbirds, honeybees and butterflies, which aids in pollinating any nearby fruit trees and plants. The very cold hardy Yellow Twig Dogwood shrub lives most comfortably in USDA Cold Hardiness Zones 3 to 9 and reaches a mature height of 6 ft. with an equal spread of 6 ft. for bright yellow winter color and an extreme tolerance of cold temperatures and wet soil, Yellow Twig Dogwood is a fantastic choice.
