Yellow Twig Dogwood vs Hedge Rose
Cornus sericea flaviramea
Rosa rugosa x Rosa woodsii (Improved hybrid developed by PFRA)
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
SOLD OUT
Yellow Twig Dogwood is a small deciduous shrub with attractive, bright yellow bark.
It features delicate white, star-shaped flowers and white fruit. It is often used as a screen, and its wide-spreading roots help stabilize areas experiencing soil erosion.
Yellow Twig Dogwood complements Red Osier Dogwood, and it is a great filler to add winter color to shrub and flower gardens.
Hedge Rose is a long-lived, fast-growing shrub. It bears similar flowers to the Alberta Wild Rose. Birds will love its deep red rose hips. Hedge Rose will thrive in a wide variety of soils and is a tall rose forming a useful hedge.
Excellent for shelterbelts, ecobuffers, and wildlife habitat plantings. Continuous flowering makes it attractive to pollinators. Many song and game birds utilize this tree for food and habitat.
In use since the early 1900s, this hybrid was originally developed at the PFRA's Indian Head Agroforestry Center.
