White Flowering Dogwood 1 Live Tree – 1 Gallon Pot – Cornus florida

White Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida) is a deciduous ornamental tree native to eastern North America. It is admired for its showy white spring bracts, attractive branching structure, and colorful autumn foliage. The large, petal-like white bracts surround clusters of small, true flowers, creating the familiar flowering display associated with this native dogwood.

During spring, White Flowering Dogwood produces clusters of small greenish-yellow flowers surrounded by four prominent white bracts. Its green leaves provide summer interest before developing shades of red, burgundy, and purple in autumn. Red fruits may follow flowering and provide seasonal food for birds and other wildlife. This tree is well suited to woodland gardens, understory plantings, naturalized landscapes, and ornamental specimen locations.

White Flowering Dogwood generally performs best in partial shade to morning sun with afternoon shade, particularly in warmer climates. It prefers moist, organically rich, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Its natural branching habit and seasonal ornamental features make it a distinctive choice for residential landscapes and wildlife-friendly gardens.
