Yellow‑twig dogwood ‘Flaviramea’ offers cheerful golden stems in winter, contrasting evergreen backdrops. White flower clusters in late spring give way to porcelain berries. Fast, suckering growth forms a 2 m thicket that stabilises banks and tolerates wet soils. Hard pruning every 2–3 years refreshes colour; combine with red‑stemmed forms for striking contrasts.
