Planting & Care

A wonderful deciduous hedge providing year-round interest and a haven for wildlife.
Brightens the winter garden with clusters of vibrant yellow flowers on bare branches from January to March.
Offers a full seasonal display with summer leaves turning red-purple in autumn, alongside red berries that birds love.
A versatile, fast-growing shrub ideal as a standalone feature, a single-species hedge, or mixed in a border.

Species: Dogwood
Features: Native to UK, Autumn colour, Colourful berries & fruits
Flowering Time: January, February, March
Flower Colour: Clusters of little yellow flowers on bare twigs
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Hardiness: Fully hardy (H7 - frost resistant down to -20°C)
Soil Type: Any well-drained, fertile soil
Habit: Bushy, multi-stemmed shrub
Growth Rate: Fast growing, expect 40-60cm per year
Eventual Spread: Spreads to approximately 5m unless pruned

Planting Time: October to March.
Spacing: For a hedge, plant 3-7 plants per metre. Higher densities should be in a double staggered row.
Planting: If your soil is heavy or sandy, mix in some perlite or horticultural grit to improve drainage. Bare root plants can be stored for several weeks in a cool, dark spot in winter; in spring, plant within a few days of arrival.
Watering: Water well after planting and during dry spells for the first year.
Feeding: A low-maintenance plant that does not require additional feeding.
Pruning: To encourage the brightest coloured stems, prune hard in late winter/early spring (February/March) after the first year. Cut back to a woody base within 10cm (4") of the ground.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free, but can occasionally suffer from cornus anthracnose.
