The EASIEST shrub to propagate! Red Osier Dogwood

Red Osier Dogwood, (Cornus sericea) is also known as Red Twig Dogwood for its blazing red stems in the winter. A native shrub to North America, these stems can easily be used to propagate themselves over and over every year. Native plants repair our ecosystem and give habitat back to wildlife. If you plant Red Osier Dogwood you'll see stunning flowers in the spring, berries for birds to eat, outrageous fall color and shockingly red stems in the winter. Talk about four season interest!

Daddy always loved dogwoods! We have red and yellow! Beautiful pops of color ❤

Red dog wood grows wild on my property and I mean wiiiild. It's everywhere and the whitetails love it. I take cuttings and just poke em in the ground everywhere I can

I've been dying to get some red osier to replace the non native & invasive shrubs that were here when I bought my house a few years ago. It's so beautiful and now I know I can buy a few, root cuttings, rince & repeat.
Thank you so much Lisa! ❤

Thanks so much! I just planted some this year. Im so excited to get some more free plants!

[stacyrosa]

I have them in my front ditch, I transplanted from the wild 15 years ago, they're about 12 ft tall, and around, and are gorgeous!

[Orinoor]

Thank you for this, was getting ready to buy about 5 of these, but now I only need to buy 1, sweet!

[craigwagner]

I just planted 120 of these in my woods. They are like candy to the whitetail deer

Please leave me, the cheese and the dark out of it 😂

Those are so pretty. I need to see what’s native in my area 🤔

Awesome! If you have a lot of deer around you may need to protect em while young to get em growing. If I don’t cage young dogwoods it’s almost futile.

[deerhearse]

Thanks can’t wait to try this method for deer browse back in my woods this spring!!

[Anonymously]

I bought red and yellow twig dog wood because it was labeled “deer resistant”…wrong. The label should have read deer magnet! Deers love dogwoods!

[PlantNative]

I’m currently trying this with Virburnum trilobum and yep…I’ve pulled to 👀 😂

[earnestbass]

Well done! Great content, very entertaining

[drefhill]

it's a basitone plant so the branchs need to be cutted at the bottom.

Any suggestions for making cuttings from Hornbeam (Carpinus carolinian)?
