Title

We have Redosier Dogwood (Cornus sericeaseeds available.  These are collected from local wild stands of healthy trees.  

Dogwoods are a native small tree or bush, we find the largest ones here are around 10-12' tall with a 2" trunk. The bark will be bright red when grown in full sun. They tolerate shade and wet soils very well, in fact finding a stand where other trees won't grow can indicate water logged soils.  Here they grow very well in sandy soil and under the forest canopy. The trees have attractive foliage, and bright white berries in the fall (food for wildlife).
