Ivory Halo® Red Twig Dogwood — Cornus alba

Ivory Halo® Red Twig Dogwood (Cornus alba 'Bailhalo') is a stunning compact shrub that combines two of the most sought-after ornamental features — striking cream-variegated foliage and brilliant red winter stems — into one refined, four-season package. Through spring and summer, the handsome blue-green leaves edged in creamy white provide a bright, luminous texture in the landscape. In spring, clusters of small white flowers attract pollinators, followed by small white berries that birds love. As fall arrives, the foliage shifts to warm burgundy tones before dropping to reveal the plant’s signature feature: vivid red stems that glow against winter snow and dormant landscapes. A compact, well-behaved shrub that thrives in moist, well-drained soils in full to part sun. Hardy to Zone 3.
