Cornus Kousa Chinensis ‘Milky Way’

Choice and Very Hard to Find this is a landmark tree, lovely in every season, dependable and easy to grow.

There may not really be as many blooms on this tree as there are stars in the Milky Way, but it would be close!

Very abundantly blooming over a long late spring and early summer season, this hard-to-find Chinese Dogwood is a treasure deserving of the best site in your landscape. Every season brings fresh beauty from this tree, and you will never tire of admiring its virtues.The flowers are creamy-white and simply everywhere, appearing to weigh down the slightly downturned branches. They are followed by masses of red berries that birds find irresistible, persisting from late summer through autumn, even after the mid-green leaves have changed into bold shades of orange and red. And when the foliage finally falls, it is difficult to mourn its passing with the sight of the well-branched silhouette of mottled bicolor bark on display.Quite adaptable and easy to grow, ‘Milky Way’ is resistant to most pests and diseases (including Anthracnose). You will find it trouble-free to grow and a pleasure to watch as the seasons pass. We give it our highest recommendation, and urge you to reserve your ‘Milky Way’ promptly, as quantities are limited.
