{"product_id":"dogwood-2-gal-siberian-variegated-87967","title":"Dogwood, 2 gal, Siberian Variegated","description":"The Siberian Variegated Dogwood (Cornus alba 'Sibirica Variegata') is a versatile and extremely cold-hardy deciduous shrub, prized for its year-round ornamental appeal, particularly in northern climates like Saskatchewan.\r\nFoliage: Dark green leaves with creamy-white margins. In late summer and autumn, the variegation often takes on shades of pink and red before turning an outstanding scarlet.\r\nWinter Stems: After the leaves fall, the plant reveals bright, vivid red branches that provide a stark, beautiful contrast against winter snow.\r\nFlowers \u0026amp; Fruit: Small clusters of creamy white flowers bloom in late spring, followed by attractive powder-blue to white berries in mid-to-late summer.\r\nDimensions: Typically grows to a mature height and spread of 5 to 7 feet (1.5–2.1 m) with a rounded habit.\r\nHardiness: Rated for USDA Zone 3 (as low as -40°C), making it exceptionally reliable for prairie winters.\r\nSunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade. While adaptable to shade, full sun exposure produces the most vibrant red stem color in winter.\r\nSoil: Highly adaptable to various soil types, including clay and poorly drained \"boggy\" areas; it can even tolerate some standing water.\r\nPruning: To maintain the brightest red stems, it is recommended to prune out one-third of the oldest branches to the ground each year in late winter or early spring.\u003cp\u003eIf you need any more photos or additional information on this product, send us a message using the chat button on our website with the product name, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis plant has a representative product photo and the item you will receive may not be exactly as shown.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bylands Nurseries","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49707088609520,"sku":"73936","price":31.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/3617\/4760\/files\/73936-1.jpg?v=1780762387","url":"https:\/\/floralacres.ca\/products\/dogwood-2-gal-siberian-variegated-87967","provider":"Floral Acres Greenhouse \u0026 Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
