Pucker Up!® Red Twig Dogwood Cornus
2 1/4" finishes to 1 gallon in 14-18 weeks, Quick Turn finishes to 2-3 gallon in 16-20 weeks.
Easy to grow and adaptable, but not tolerant of high heat and humidity.
Pucker Up is slower growing than most red-twig dogwoods. Foliage, not stem color, is the main feature.
Trim up to three times to develop a full habit; do not cut too hard as recovery may be slow. Similarly, avoid cutting into thick stems.
Though this variety is resistant to leaf spot, practice good sanitation to reduce the potential in production.
