Description
  • Height: Easily maintained at 1m to 3m
  • Growth rate: Medium, expect 20-40cm per year
  • Animal grazing friendly

Grown for its colourful winter stems, this spectacular is also cloaked in green foliage throughout summer. Cornus sanguinea bears tiny white flowers in summer which are followed by glossy black berries. By autumn the foliage turns to a fiery shade of red before falling to the ground to reveal spectacular orange, yellow and red stems. A superbly versatile, deciduous hedging plant for year round interest. Height: 3m (10'). Spread: 2.5m (8'). Planting distance: 30cm (12”). (4 plants per metre for a single line hedge).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow
Please refer to individual varieties for growing instructions

These plants are lifted from the nursery field when dormant, and sent to you in late autumn or spring for planting. They often look dead on arrival, but they are just resting in the dormant period and will establish quickly for a strong start in the garden come spring. Set out in prepared soil in holes wide enough and deep enough to lay out the roots. Tread down the planting soil to knock out air pockets. Water well to settle. Apply a mulch to protect roots from cold temperatures. If conditions prevent immediate planting, set roughly into loose soil or a pot of compost (‘heeling in’) to protect the roots. Set these at the same level as they were in the nursery field – you should see a soil line at the base of the stem. Stake trees, taller shrubs and roses to prevent root disturbance.

More Info
Water regularly until fully established. Apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost around the base of the plants in spring, taking care not to mound mulch up against the stems.
