Couldn't load pickup availability
White Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida) is a deciduous ornamental tree native to eastern North America, admired for its showy white spring bracts, graceful branching habit, and colorful autumn foliage. Its distinctive seasonal appearance makes it a popular choice for woodland gardens, native landscapes, and ornamental specimen plantings.
In spring, clusters of small greenish-yellow flowers are surrounded by four prominent, petal-like white bracts that create the tree's familiar floral display. During summer, attractive green leaves provide a lush backdrop, followed by shades of red, burgundy, and purple in autumn. Bright red fruits may develop after flowering and provide seasonal food for birds and other wildlife.
White Flowering Dogwood generally performs best in partial shade or morning sunlight with afternoon shade, especially in warmer regions. It prefers moist, organically rich, slightly acidic soil with good drainage. Its naturally spreading, layered branches make it well suited to woodland edges, understory plantings, native gardens, and residential landscapes.
You will receive one live White Flowering Dogwood tree in a 3 gallon nursery pot.

The plant is supplied as a young tree rather than a mature flowering specimen. Actual trunk development, branching, foliage density, and overall appearance may vary according to nursery growth and seasonal conditions.
White Flowering Dogwood is deciduous and naturally loses its leaves during colder months. Plants may ship dormant, leafless, recently pruned, or without flowers depending on the season. Flowering and fruiting at the time of shipping are not guaranteed.

Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.

You will receive a live starter plant (seedling/young plant). Listing photos show the plant at a mature stage for reference only. The actual plant size, shape, and appearance may vary and will be significantly smaller than the images shown.
