Yellow Twig Dogwood
Amber Gold Arborvitae (Cedar)

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.

The Amber Gold Arborvitae is a cultivar of the Eastern White Cedar that has high ornamental value. Its scale-like foliage emerges yellow, darkens to green in summer, then turns an attractive orange-gold. This tree is an effective privacy screen even in winter and is a great addition to urban gardens.

The fall and winter colour on this tree is an amber-orange giving the Amber Gold Arborvitae its name.
