CONNOISSEUR’S SELECTION 

A fine variety with relatively slender leaves that have narrow cream margins. Creamy white bracts can appear as early as May and last well into June.

Cornus kousa and its cultivars give a stunning display of flowers in late Spring often followed later by spectacular autumn foliage colour. In time they make a large deciduous shrub or small tree of graceful habit, perfect for the smaller garden. The flowers consist of four petal-like bracts with a central round boss and, as the plant matures, these are produced in great abundance especially if the previous summer has been warm and sunny. They are suitable for many planting schemes including Japanese gardens, minimalist contemporary, mixed shrub borders as well as prairie plantings, ideal for specimen planting as a focal point in a garden for long season of interest. 

Cultivation:

A sunny position in the shelter of other trees and shrubs is best, avoiding very hot dry sites. They will grow happily in semi shade but their flower production and colour will not be as intense.

Give them a moist, free-draining neutral to acid soil with plenty of depth and organic matter. They will tolerate slightly alkaline soils but only if the soil is deep with plenty of organic matter added.

  • Robin M Verified Buyer
    I'm always delighted to order special plants from my favourite nursery. I say that although I've only once managed to take the opportunity to make one visit many years ago as I live far away on Tyneside. However I'm so impressed with the wonderful quality of all the plants that I have received, and especially impressed with the professional packaging when I open it up to see the well cared for plants. I hope to pay another visit one day soon, and admire John's Garden too.
