Zone: 3FLAVIRAMEA YELLOW TWIG DOGWOOD
Cornus sericea 'Flaviramea' is commonly referred to as Flaviramea Yellow Twig Dogwood. It is a fast-growing, compact deciduous flowering shrub which grows to a maximum 5-6 feet tall with an equal spread. It has a spreading, stoloniferous habit with dark green leaves that turn reddish orange in the fall. Creamy white flowers appear in late spring. It really shines in winter with its bright yellow winter stems.
Flaviramea Yellow Twig Dogwood thrives in full sun in organically rich, evenly moist, well-drained soils. Pruning is tolerated in order to maintain the plant's shape and stem color - brightest displays are present on young stems. Outstanding plant - an invaluable addition to the winter landscape.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in full sun to partial shade; it performs best in sunny locations where stem color will be most vibrant. It is exceptionally adaptable to various soil types and thrives in moist or wet soils. Pruning: Like all C. sericea types, the stem color fades on older wood. To maintain the bright yellow 'twig' color, perform rejuvenation pruning (coppicing) in late winter: cut one-third to one-half of the oldest, dullest stems to the ground. This forces a flush of vibrant, new yellow growth for the following winter season.
