Cornus Florida Appalachian Spring

'Appalachian Spring' starts the season off strong by blooming its clusters of white and yellow detailed flowers form mid-late spring. After flowers fade, bright red fruits appear between the apple green foliage in late summer to early fall and may persist into winter, if the critters allow it! For an additional ornamental kick, those apple green leaves turn red and purple in fall. This Dogwood works well as a specimen, when planted in groups, and also is a great option for woodland or native gardens. 

Full sun to part shade. Average, moist, well-draining soil. Zone 5-9. 

Attracts pollinators, deer resistant, clay soil and Black Walnut tolerant. 

Benefits from an application of 2-4" of mulch to keep roots cool and maintain soil moisture.
