3 Kousa Dogwood Bare Root Trees Cornus kousa Live Plant Flowering Ornamental

Kousa Dogwood is a small flowering deciduous tree valued for its layered horizontal branching and showy display of pointed white bracts that appear in late spring after the foliage emerges. It develops a graceful vase-shaped canopy and offers multi-season interest with reddish-purple fall color and distinctive red berry-like fruit clusters that ripen in late summer.

This tree works well as a specimen, patio tree, or mixed border planting, and it can also be grown in containers while young. It prefers a site with consistent moisture and good drainage and performs best where it receives some protection from intense afternoon sun. It grows at a moderate rate with a broadly upright habit and provides structure and seasonal color in the landscape.
