GREENSLEEVES KOUSA DOGWOOD


Cornus Kousa 'Greensleeves' is commonly referred to as Greensleeves Kousa Dogwood. This small deciduous tree is an all-around beautiful tree no matter the season. In late spring, white bracts open with green highlights. They gradually change to all white. Blooms give way in late summer to edible, deep pink, strawberry-like fruit which persist into fall. Birds love them so they may not stick around long! In fall, foliage turns a showy red and purple.

Greensleeves Kousa Dogwood thrives in full sun to partial shade in organically rich, acidic to neutral, well-drained soils. It is ideal as a specimen plant or in shrub borders and naturalized areas.

Planting Tips

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.
