Dogwood - Arctic Fire
 Ornamental Shrub with Winter Appeal The Arctic Fire Dogwood is a dwarf ornamental shrub with outstanding winter appeal.  Plant one by a front entrance to draw the eye or several as a magnificent shrub boarder.   Your yard in winter will never be the same once you plant an Arctic Fire.  Lovely four foot stems of red fire will seem to capture the winter sunlight amid the browns and grays of your cold landscape.  Deer won’t nibble your Dogwood, so you’ll have plenty of the brilliant stems to bring indoors for a warm accent during those long days of winter.    Even through the winter color is the outstanding feature of this shrub, spring and summer also have their charms.  Tiny clusters of delicate white flowers appear in spring and continue sporadically into the summer months.  Pointy, dark green leaves fill out the shrub through the warm months until they turn a pleasing burgundy in the fall.  As an added treat, berries will appear to the delight of your feathered friends.   The Arctic Fire Dogwood is a fast-grower and tolerant of many soils and conditions.  You won’t have to worry or fuss over it, and wildlife will love it.  Plant one today for some spectacular winter color.   * Winter color * Fast-growing * Spring/summer flowers * Fall fruit and color
