About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Kousa dogwood brings an East Asian flowering-tree tradition into the garden. The conspicuous white display associated with Cornus kousa is formed by bracts surrounding the small true flowers, a botanical detail that makes the bloom more interesting on close inspection. Later fruit and changing foliage extend its seasonal story.

Use an established plant as a specimen where there is room to appreciate the layered branching and the contrast between leaves and pale bracts. It can link a mixed shrub border with taller trees, provided the site suits its needs. Growing from seed is a patient route to a flowering tree, and seedlings vary in their eventual display. It should not be expected to duplicate a named large-flowered or colored-bract cultivar.
