Zone: 5VENUS® CHINESE DOGWOOD
The Venus® Kousa Dogwood is a fast-growing hybrid from Rutgers University with large, snow white flower bracts that appear in late spring. This exceptional cultivar branches all the way to the ground, creating a cloud of large, bright blooms from the ground up. It is noteworthy for its vigorous habit, large bracted flowers, and resistance to powdery mildew and anthracnose. Mature trees form strawberry-like fruits that birds love. As fall approaches, its foliage ages in purple and red hues.

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.
