Zone: 5BLUE SHADOW CHINESE DOGWOOD
Blue Shadow Chinese Dogwood is a vigorous, broad-spreading Kousa dogwood that features bluish green foliage that is a bit larger than other Kousa dogwoods. Showy clusters of white flower bracts cover its oriental-like horizontally-tiered branches for several weeks in spring. Come late summer, an abundance of raspberry-like fruit appears followed by red fall color. In winter, attractive peeling, gray bark adds another dimension and interest to this tree.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in full sun to partial shade; this species is more sun-tolerant than other dogwoods. Ensure soil is well-draining, rich, and slightly acidic. When planting, keep the root flare visible at the soil surface; never bury the trunk. Water deeply and consistently during the first two growing seasons. Pruning is rarely necessary; only remove dead, diseased, or crossing branches in late winter or early spring.
