The Red Osier Dogwood (Cornus sericea) is a species of dogwood native throughout northern and western North America, from Alaska east to Newfoundland.
In the wild, it commonly grows in areas of damp soil, such as wetlands like Oak Hammock Marsh. It is a medium to tall deciduous shrub, growing 1.5 to 4 m tall and 3 to 5 m wide.
The branches and twigs are dark red, although wild plants may lack this coloration in areas. The leaves are opposite, 5 to 12 cm long and 2.5 to 6 cm broad, with an ovate to oblong shape and an entire margin. They are dark green above and glaucous below; fall color is commonly bright red to purple. The flowers are small (5 to10 mm diameter), dull white, in clusters 3 to 6 cm diameter. The fruit is a globose white berry 5 to 9 mm diameter.
