RHS Garden Rosemoor in North Devon holds a National Plant Collection of Cornus (excl. C. florida).

These shrubs or small trees, known as dogwoods, can be grown for their winter stem colour or their showy coloured bracts from early spring to summer. 

Jon Webster, curator at RHS Garden Rosemoor is looking forward to keeping you up to date with developments in the collection.
