The greensleeves kousa dogwood is another unique variety of the Asian dogwoods. In the early summer the white bracts open with bright green highlights and slowly change to a creamy white. This occurs against the background of the glossy dark, green leaves making a wonderfully showy display.  It has a lovely low branching vase like form making it a beautiful, ornamental tree that can stand alone or in your garden. It also has a lovely fall color of red to reddish purple foliage and the fall fruit will attract wildlife. It is a hardy tree that performs well in full sun or partial shade conditions. 

General care for any tree or shrub is easy, but like any living thing will require your attention. Please educate yourself and follow these simple rules.
