Cornus (Clump) ‘Celestial’ 6‘-7’ B&B

This dogwood is an excellent small specimen tree. Two outstanding characteristics are the four-petaled, white flowers that appear above the foliage in June and reddish-purple fall color. In the Midwest, this is a hardier substitute for the acid-loving flowering dogwood. The shallow root system will benefit with a layer of mulch to maintain a cool root environment.

• Bloom Time: Late spring to early summer
• Light Requirements: Full Sun to Part Shade (4 to 6+ Hours)
• Soil Requirements: Prefers rich, moist, well-draining, slightly acidic soil. Will not tolerate soggy conditions.
