This shrub will provide interest in your garden 365 days a year. The bare branches turn scarlet red during the winter months, white flowers blossom at the end of old wood in late spring, the dark green glossy quilted looking foliage adds summer interest, dark blue berries form in late summer and the leaves turn a pretty burgundy shade before falling off in the fall. It’s a plant that will provide year-round interest in your landscape.

Pucker Up! Red Twig Dogwood can be used in mass plantings, to create hedges or screen out unsightly views, in perennial, shrub or mixed borders and as a container plant. It’s a perfect choice to add a focal point in your garden, especially during the winter months. This fast-growing native North American species reaches 3 to 4 feet tall and wide at maturity.

Pucker Up! Red Twig Dogwood Care

Plant Pucker Up! Red Twig Dogwood in a partial to full sun location in USDA hardiness zones 3 to 8. It can thrive in either dry or wet conditions in any soil type. It’s tolerant of salt and urban pollution plus it is deer resistant. Plant it in a location where you’ll be apt to see it from inside your home or along a frequently used walkway to provide the best opportunity to view its stunning red branches against winter snow or another neutral background. Harvest a few branches to add interest to indoor or outdoor winter containers.

Pucker Up! Red Twig Dogwood Spacing

Plant multiple species of this upright growing shrub 4 to 5 feet apart on center. This plant is low maintenance but may occasionally sprout suckers. Remove them if spreading is not desired.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
