Cornus sericea 'Kelseyi' is a compact, dwarf dogwood valued for its brilliant winter colour and tidy size. In summer it forms a low, spreading mound of fresh green foliage, which turns red-purple in autumn before falling to reveal vivid red stems that light up the garden through winter. Fully hardy and easy to grow, it is perfect for small gardens, borders, containers, or ground cover, and responds well to pruning to keep the stems bright and colourful.
