Pot Grown Common Dogwood
(Cornus sanguinea)

Common Dogwood will produce a mixture of stunning, red/green stems during the Autumn/Winter seasons, adding a welcomed pop of colour during the duller days!

We've dedicated time and care into growing your pot grown plant, so it arrives looking stunningly new and healthy.

All Dogwood varieties have similar features, which includes creamy-white flowers in the Spring, following with blue or white berries (which Thrushes and Robins love), that sit on lush dark-green, oval leaves that redden in Autumn and fall (as the plant is deciduous) to uncover the stunning-coloured stems underneath.

You can create a lovely mixed hedge with the Common Dogwood, or you can let it express its own wonderful features as a standalone hedge.

The Cornus sanguinea is a tough plant that does well in both sun and partial shade and will always do best in moist sites.

  • Growth height: Average (20-40cm per year)
  • Ideal height: 2.5m+ Tall
  • Soil Type: Normal
  • Exposure: Inland
  • Aspect: Semi-shade, Sun
  • Evergreen foliage? No

As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.

Do not prune your Common Dogwood in first year of growth; after that, ensure you cut them down to a woody base (within 4 inches of the ground) before they bud. This must be done every year, and make sure you feed and water the plant well after doing so- this will reward you with bright and lovely new shoots. You can also regenerate old plants through cutting away the old wood from the centre.

  1. Prepare the soil by mixing in some compost. Dig the hole- this will have to be about twice the width of the root system, but the same depth.
  2. Remove the plant from its pot by placing one hand at the base of the stem, and another at the bottom of the pot. Wriggle the pot away gently.
  3. Untangle the roots a little as they may be clumped together.
  4. Place the plant into the hole, ensuring the base of the stem is level with the surface of the soil. Follow this with backfilling the hole with your soil mix, and patting down lightly to secure.
  5. When you're done, thoroughly water the plant. Ensure you regularly water throughout its first year, as the plant needs plenty to be able to settle down, recover, and establish.

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    Bare Root

    Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.

  • Pot Grown
    Pot Grown

    Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.

  • Root Ball
    Root Ball

    Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.

  • Instant Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
