Cornus Kousa ..... Chinese Dogwood
In spring the Dogwood tree produces a heavenly array of star-like blooms, and in summer its intriguing canopy of layered branches provides shade and beauty.
The spring blooms are probably the tree’s largest selling point and its most misunderstood. The white “petals” aren’t actually petals at all they are modified leaves called bracts that surround the small, greenish-yellow, insignificant flowers.
