Milky Way Kousa Dogwood – Heavy-Flowering White Summer Bloomer (Cornus kousa 'Milky Way')
Product Details
Description
Dogwood 'Milky Way' Tree
'Milky Way' is a remarkable Chinese Dogwood variety prized for its dense display of creamy-white flowers that resemble a galaxy of stars, blooming in late spring to early summer. Unlike native Dogwoods, this cultivar blooms after leaf-out, creating a striking contrast against the deep green foliage.
In late summer, eye-catching red berries attract birds, while the leaves turn vivid shades of crimson and purple in the fall. Its upright, spreading habit and resistance to common Dogwood diseases make it a top choice for both urban and rural landscapes.
- Heavy bloom of star-shaped white flowers
- Brilliant red and burgundy fall foliage
- Produces red fruit that birds adore

- Perfect for specimen planting or woodland edges
Note: Prefers rich, well-drained soil and benefits from mulch around the base. Avoid full sun in extremely hot regions.
