Red Osier Dogwood is a small deciduous shrub that features deep red stems and twigs year-round, with creamy white flowers in the spring. This shrub will add a nice pop of color to your yard.
Red Osier Dogwood is an excellent soil stabilizer. It is fast growing and becomes drought tolerant once well established.
Birch Leaf Meadowsweet is a small, rounded shrub, reaching 3 to 4 feet high.
In the early summer, white flowers emerge with dark green foliage. Come fall, birch-like leaves turn a kaleidoscope of red, orange, and purple adding seasonal interest.
Native to Japan and Eastern Asia, this dwarf shrub attracts butterflies and is an excellent option for the front row of a shrub border.
