1 Bare Root Silky Dogwood Tree 12 Inches Tall Cornus amomum

Silky Dogwood is a deciduous North American native shrub or small tree valued for its reddish-brown stems, clusters of creamy white spring blooms, and blue berry-like fruit that follows. It brings multi-season interest to naturalized areas, rain gardens, and wildlife-friendly landscapes, and its dense branching provides cover and nesting structure.
This adaptable plant works well along pond edges, stream banks, and low-lying areas where its spreading habit helps stabilize soil and fill in open spaces. The foliage turns attractive shades of burgundy and purple in autumn, and the colorful winter stems add interest to the dormant landscape. It pairs nicely with other native shrubs in mixed borders and habitat plantings.
