Dogwood 'Sgt. Pepper®'
Cornus alba 'Verpaalen2'
Sgt. Pepper® is a variety of dogwood with variegated leaves. The green foliage has creamy white margins with hints of pink. In late spring/early summer, clusters of small, white flowers that are attractive to pollinators appear. The best show is in the fall when the leaves turn shades of burgundy and bright pink.
Dogwoods are low-maintenance shrubs that grow well in wet areas and in average garden conditions; just keep them well-watered until they establish.
Seasonal Availability: Typically available May through September, depending on suppliers availability.
