A ray of winter sunshine for your landscape! Arctic Fire® Yellow dogwood offers the same legendary durability as red-twig dogwood, but brings a cheerful yellow option. Stunning on its own, or planted with ERROR dogwood, it also brings a nice option for cutting for winter and holiday arrangements. Native to North America.

The best yellow color appears on one and two year old stems; older stems will turn corky and brown. To maintain a colorful display, you can do one of two things: one, cut the whole plant back to short stubs every other year. Two, cut out one-third of the oldest stems every year. This option is recommended if you planted your Arctic Fire® dogwood to provide coverage. Early spring is the best time to prune.
