Cornus canadensis grows wild in many places across Northern Asia and, although not native to the UK, it positively thrives in our UK climate. Predominantly grown in sunny or semi-shady areas. A ground covering wonder that produces bright green, deeply veined foliage from March to November each year, making it one of the best low-growing shrubs for areas which do not benefit from high levels of sunshine. In spring, Cornus canadensis produces clusters of small, 4-petalled simple blooms for low, floriferous interest. These flowers are then followed by bright red summer berries - which give the plant its other common name, Bunchberry. Later, in autumn, Cornus canadensis puts on a final show as the leaves shift to deep red and provide exceptional late season interest. Cornus canadensis is a deciduous, fully hardy perennial which loses its leaves in winter and reinvigorates in spring each year. Prefers moist soil in full sun or part shade. H: 15cm S: 1m.
