From red to gray branches – this deciduous ornamental shrub will add a unique flair to your garden! In early spring, clusters of petite white blossoms coat the shrub as the lance-shaped foliage adds an elegant backdrop. By summer, the dainty flowers turn into pearled berries, becoming a feast for orioles, chickadees, Northern Mockingbirds, wood warblers, and many other local birds come for a visit and a snack! Gray Dogwood is adaptable to poor soil conditions, so if you have a problematic area in your landscape, this is the perfect perennial shrub to plant. The list of attributes keeps going, as this beauty celebrates fall dressed for the occasion in a beautiful burgundy-purple fashion!
