Red-osier Dogwood is a highly valued ornamentally, but also does quite well in the naturalized landscape. It thrives in moist areas alongside streams or ponds, or in wetter areas in a conventional garden. It is multi-stemmed shrub, and spreads from root sprouts. In fall, leaves turn bright red and bunches of white or bluish berries form. The stems of summer new growth turn red in fall, providing winter interest.
