Showy white berries form in mid-summer adding an additional layer of interest.
Bud's Yellow Dogwood thrives in full sun to partial shade. It easily tolerates both wet and dry locations and is not particular to soil type. It is tolerant of urban pollution and can thrive in city environments. This easy, adaptable shrub is ideal for mass plantings, hedges, screens and general landscape use.

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.
