Kousa Dogwood: Cornus Kousa

The Kousa Dogwood is a medium-sized flowering tree renowned for its showy, star-shaped, white to pinkish flowers, distinctive exfoliating bark, and striking red fruits. These characteristics make it a popular choice in ornamental landscaping. The small specimen tree blooms with green leaves that turn orange in the fall, topped by four-petaled white flowers. The white flowers typically bloom in the late spring, providing visual appeal throughout summer. Small raspberry-like fruits develop once the flowering is complete, attracting beneficial wildlife. As the fruits mature, they change colors from green to pinkish-red. This tree is perfect for landscapers who prefer variety as the seasons change.

Kousa Dogwood Tree Offers Year-round Visual Appeal

It adds an appealing aesthetic to any landscape that persists during all four seasons. Its horizontal branching pattern creates an architectural interest that remains even during winter when the tree is empty of leaves. During the growing season, the leaves that sprout are dense and glossy, providing a lush and verdant backdrop. Fall is the most colorful season for the tree, as its foliage turns various shades of red, orange, and purple. The tree stands out in winter for its unique bark and structure.

Kousa Dogwood Has Exquisite Fall Foliage

As mentioned, fall is when this tree truly shines aesthetically, turning into a dazzling display of brilliant colors. The red, orange, and purple highlights contrast the green backdrop of the surrounding scenery. It is striking enough to serve as the focal point of a landscape, but it can also blend seamlessly as part of a mixed planting scenario. It's a top choice for landscapers looking to add a seasonal interest in the fall and enhance the visual appeal of their foliage.

One of Kousa Dogwood's best features is its adaptability. It can be set out in many soil types, including clay and loam. Its moderate growth rate makes it well-suited for use as a specimen tree or as a naturalizing element in more significant landscapes. Still, it's also small enough to serve as the focal point for an urban or suburban garden where space might be limited.
