White Japanese Dogwood
Blooming a month later than native dogwoods, large creamy-white bracts nestle among fresh green leaves in late spring, followed by edible pinkish-red fruit, reddish-purple fall colour and attractive mottled exfoliating bark. Hardier and more disease resistant than Cornus florida making it a more reliable choice for Canadian landscapes.
