Also known as bloodtwig dogwood, this pollinator- and bird-attracting deciduous shrub grows to about 6 by 6 feet. Its fiery stems make a stunning centerpiece through the winter, and then, if not pruned, showy white blooms take over in early summer. “This variety of dogwood is one of a few recently introduced cultivars with stunningly colorful bark in winter,” Bloom says.
