The Kousa Dogwood is a medium sized flowering tree renowned for its showy, star-shaped, white to pinkish flowers, distinctive exfoliating bark, and striking red fruits, making it a popular choice in ornamental landscaping.
Kousa Dogwood Has Graceful Blooms and Unique Fruits
The Kousa Dogwood is a small specimen tree that blooms with green leaves that turn orange in the fall, topped by four-petaled white flowers. The white flowers typically bloom in the late spring, providing visual appeal throughout the summer season. Once the flowering is complete, small raspberry-like fruits develop, attracting beneficial wildlife. As the fruits mature, they change colors from green to pinkish-red. This dogwood is perfect for landscapers who prefer variety as the seasons change.
Kousa Dogwood Offers Year-Round Visual Appeal
It adds an appealing aesthetic to any landscape that persists during all four seasons. Its horizontal branching pattern creates an architectural interest that remains even during the winter months when the tree is bereft of leaves. During the growing season, the leaves that sprout are dense and glossy, providing a lush and verdant backdrop. Fall is the most colorful season for the tree, as its foliage turns various shades of red, orange, and purple. During the winter, the tree stands out for its unique bark and structure.
Kousa Dogwood Has Exquisite Fall Foliage
As mentioned, fall is the season when this tree truly shines from an aesthetic standpoint, turning into a dazzling display of brilliant colors. The red, orange, and purple highlights provide a striking contrast with the green backdrop of the surrounding scenery. It is striking enough to serve as the focal point of a landscape, but it can also blend seamlessly as part of a mixed planting scenario. It's a top choice for landscapers looking to add a seasonal interest in the fall and enhance the visual appeal of their foliage.
Kousa Dogwood Is an Adaptable Landscape Beauty
One of this tree's best features is its adaptability. It can be set out in many soil types, including clay and loam. Its moderate growth rate makes it well-suited for use as a specimen tree or as a naturalizing element in larger landscapes, but it's also small enough to serve as the focal point for an urban or suburban garden where space might be limited.
