Dogwood shrubs are super hardy and tolerant of a wide range of conditions. Variegated forms will appreciate more sun to help keep the colorful foliage and the plants uniform. Easy to grow and require a once-a-year pruning once mature. Dogwood shrubs brighten the gloom without any fuss or muss!

An established Dogwood is drought-tolerant and adaptable to both cold and hot weather extremes. It is a hardy shrub, and adaptable to multiple soil types including high soil moisture and well-drained clay.

Dogwood shrubs are easy to care for, and they adapt well to pruning. Dogwoods bloom on old wood, setting the flowers for the following year during the summer. So time your trimming in the late winter or very early in the spring.

Thicket-forming Dogwood can also be pruned by removing the oldest stems down the ground leaving the younger thinner stems in place as they have the best stem color. This renewal pruning should be done about every second to third year or whenever you notice stems lacking color. Trim suckers to the ground on thicket-forming Dogwood shrubs to keep them tidy if you don't wish them to spread.

Dogwood shrubs are generally deer-resistant and unless they are desperate, deer usually pass them by. If you live in an area with a heavy deer population, from day one spray your shrub with deer repellant and reapply according to product directions to train deer that your shrubs don't taste good and steer them away from your landscape!
