I have it planted in the photo with Cornus stolonifera, the winter red bare stems of this large running shrub complement the red rose hips of the virginiana rose in winter. This dogwood has smallish white flower heads and white berries that are also eaten immediately. This message was edited Oct 6, 2011 9:55 PM |
