Quick Overview:

A compact and hardy plant for general garden use, with no single outstanding feature, but valued for its dense, closed habit of growth.  Kelsey Dogwood has clusters of creamy white flowers at the ends of the branches in late spring. It has green foliage throughout the season. The pointy leaves turn an outstanding brick red in the fall. It produces white berries in late summer. The purple stems can be quite attractive.
