Milky Way Kousa Dogwood Tree

The Milky Way Kousa Dogwood is a beautiful flowering tree that will bring many seasons of beauty to your garden. It flowers in late spring, when the branches are smothered in a profusion of large, creamy-white flowers for almost a month. These are followed by interesting strawberry-like red fruits, and in fall the leaves turn spectacular and beautiful shades of reds, oranges and golds. Even the mottled bark is beautiful in winter. Growing to 20 feet tall and wide, this gorgeous tree is perfect on a lawn, at the edge of a woodland, by a stream, or indeed, anywhere at all you can grow it.

The Milky Way Kousa Dogwood is resistant to the deadly anthracnose disease that is devastating American dogwoods, and its is very resistant to powdery mildew too. Grow it in moist, rich, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Alkaline soils and regions with hot, dry summers are less suitable. Deer leave it alone and it needs no trimming to develop its lovely form, with layers of outstretched branches display the flowers.
