Cornus Florida Rubra

There is an old belief that dogwoods like partial shade, but the fact is, they are healthier in full sun so long as they are provided with sufficient irrigation. When grown in the sun they gain height & width more rapidly, have more leaves & many more flowers. It requires soil with good drainage but is otherwise forgiving of a wide range of soil conditions.

The pink dogwood's flowers in late April and early May are followed by clusters of bright red fruits.

Cornus Eddie's White Wonder

A hybrid between our native Dogwood Cornus nuttallii and Cornus florida, Eddie's White Wonder is a heavily flowering deciduous tree with large, white, rounded bracts (flowers) that appear in spring. Summer foliage is dark green and is followed by rich red fall color. Small, red fruits appear in winter that attract songbirds. This tree has upright, pyramidal growth with slightly pendulous branches.
