Kousa Dogwood Trees

There is a difference between Kousa Dogwood and Dogwood. Kousa produce leaves first and then bracts, but Dogwood produce flowers first and then leaves. Kousa have vibrant fall foliage as well. They tolerate full sun, but love partial or dappled shade. They thrive in moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. They require consistent moisture and are not drought-tolerant. If you need to prune them, do so immediately after flowering. Kousa are compact trees, looking their best near patios or entries and at the edge of woodland areas.
