Ivory Halo Dogwood
Ivory Halo Dogwood
93 in stock
Cornus alba 'Bailhalo'
Choose Ivory Halo Dogwood if you want a compact red-twig dogwood with variegated leaves and winter stem color. The tradeoff: it needs periodic thinning and room to spread, so it is not a clipped, evergreen foundation shrub.
Buy This If
- You want red winter stems.
- You like variegated summer foliage.
- Your bed has space to fill.
Skip This If
- You need evergreen privacy.
- You dislike renewal pruning.
- Deer feed heavily nearby.
PGNE Report Card
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The white-edged foliage carries the shrub through summer, then the red stems take over after leaf drop. |
| Growth Rate | B+ | It fills in quickly enough for new beds, but that speed also means some shaping will be needed. |
| Maintenance | B- | Plan to remove older stems periodically because the youngest stems give the strongest winter color. |
| Deer Resistance | C | This isn't deer-resistant; deer may browse it, especially tender new growth, so protect it where deer pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | B | It is more controlled than many red twig dogwoods, but it still needs space around walks, windows, and siding. |
| Screening Value | C | It can soften views in season, but it drops its leaves and should not be used for year-round privacy. |
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Ivory Halo Dogwood where the customer wants winter color without committing to a full-size red twig dogwood. Give it space, prune for fresh stems, and avoid very dry sites.

Customers Usually Ask
Does it stay colorful all year?
It has variegated leaves in the growing season and red stems after leaf drop, but it is not evergreen.
How do I keep the stems red?
Remove some older stems near the base every few years to encourage fresh, brighter growth.
Can it go near a foundation?
Yes, if the bed has enough depth and it is not crowded against windows, steps, or siding.
