Cornus pumila (Red Tip Dogwood)

Cornus pumila, commonly known as Red Tip Dogwood, is a small deciduous shrub that typically grows up to 3-5 feet tall. It is known for its beautiful red new growth, which creates a stunning contrast against the rest of the green foliage. The shrub produces small white flowers in late spring, followed by blue-black berries in late summer. Red Tip Dogwood thrives in hardiness zone 5 and is a great addition to gardens or landscapes looking for a vibrant burst of color.
