The foliage is green in the summer and displays brilliant red stems that are especially showy in the winter. Small clusters of white flowers are followed by clusters of small white fruit that birds relish. Prefers moist to wet soil, is easy to grow, and rarely needs pruning.

Is this a good plant to use for something a little different in landscaping in front of a house? From Nature Hills: If you were seeking a 2 - 3 foot compact round dogwood this tree would be a good choice. If you have a small area where you would like to have a focal point and then smaller plants such as ajuga's etc. the Kelsey Dwarf would be an excellent choice.
