Dogwood, Silky
Native to Vermont and eastern US and Canada. Silky Dogwood has creamy white flowers in the spring and blue berries that are food for robins, grosbeaks and catbirds. This shrub is great for helping to control erosion, for slope stabilization as well as creating windbreaks. It can grow to be 6-10’ tall and prefers moist or wet soil but can grow in loam or sand. Alkaline tolerant and prefers part to fill shade. Hardy to zone 4. Potted 1-2’. Self fertile (hermaphroditic) but benefits from a second plant nearby for pollination.
