Yellow Twig Dogwood is a beautiful, showy flowering shrub that grows quickly with multiple stems. Its sunshine-yellow flowers open in springtime and bring butterflies flocking to your garden. Variegated green and yellow leaves deepen to red in the fall, and in the winter, its bright yellow stems add a pop of color to the landscape. An excellent specimen tree, Yellow Twig Dogwood grows best in fertile, humus-rich, neutral to acid soil in full sun or partial shade. It grows 5 ft. to 8 ft. tall with a 4 ft. spread.
