Yellow Twig Dogwood vs Alpine Currant
Cornus sericea flaviramea
Ribes alpinum
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
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.
Alpine Currant is a great shrub to plant along sidewalks, near building or at your property boundary as a hedge or accent species. It is widely used by commercial landscapers in parking lots and near buildings because of its hardiness, attractiveness, and pollution tolerance.
While Alpine Currant produces edible berries, they are not palatable.
