Description

Kousa dogwood is one of the most decorative trees in the garden. It comes from Japan, China, and Korea. Its unique loose, layered crown makes it an original element of the garden. The flowers of the kousa dogwood are not very visible or particularly decorative. The main ornament of these plants is the bracts, which surround the flowers and come in various colors and sizes.
Cornus kousa 'Milky Way' is a large, spreading, and wide shrub or small compact tree with rapid and vigorous growth. It is one of the most beautiful representatives of the species, and during flowering, it is completely covered with large cream-white bracts surrounding the true flowers. It blooms regularly from late June to July.
The leaves of this variety turn red in autumn. Kousa dogwoods require fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic, or neutral soil.
The best locations are sunny or semi-shaded areas, sheltered from the wind.
