Cornus canadensis

Cornus canadensis or Creeping Dogwood can be planted in woodland gardens to prevent weeds from growing at the base of other, larger shrubs. It provides equally good ground cover in sunny borders, where its small, white flowers will stand out against rosettes of green, oval leaves in the late spring and early summer. These cross-shaped blooms are succeeded by scarlet berries, making the hardy perennial a colourful and practical choice of plant. Height: 15cm (6). Spread: 1m (3’3).
