Cornus sericea ‘Baileyi’ is a deciduous shrub featuring bright red winter bark, showy clusters of white spring flowers, small, round, whitish to bluish drupes in late summer, rich burgundy-purple fall foliage, and showy cherry-red to deep red stems in winter. The ‘Baileyi’ cultivar has a clumping habit that suckers significantly less than the native species. Use as a hedge, privacy screen, for weed suppression, and erosion control. Grows in full sun (best bloom) to part shade (very shade tolerant). It is highly adaptable to soil conditions, but thrives in rich, moist-to-wet soils. Tolerant of clay and seasonal flooding. Moderate to high water use; tolerates seasonally inundated conditions well but also has some drought tolerance. Cold hardy to -40°F.
