Swida (Cornus) racemosa
Grey dogwood is one of our favorites for fence-line plantings or garden borders. A small-to-medium sized shrub that blooms well in full sun and able to handle well-drained to moist soils, Grey dogwood has muti-season interest.
The flowers are reminiscent of certain hydrangeas, with a full triangle shape of white blooms. As the blossoms fade, large, white, berry-like drupes form on bright red twigs, which maintain their color as the birds pick them clean and the leaves fall, fading to a rich brown color as winter comes.
Plants can be purchased in-person or online (with in-person pick-up).
All online orders will be ready for pick-up 24-72 hours after purchase. You will receive an email to let you know when your order is ready. We kindly ask that you pick-up any orders within one week of purchase.
