Native to Japan and Korea, Cornus kousa is a large shrub or tree with two good seasons of interest. In early summer it bears white bracts with tiny flowers in the centre, set against the green leaves, and in autumn the leaves flare bronze and crimson. In a good year there will also be strawberry-like pink fruit in autumn.
Cornus kousa 'Doubloon' has large white bracts and particularly fiery autumn foliage. Grow Cornus kousa 'Doubloon' in rich soil with well-rotted compost, in full sun to partial shade. It's an ideal choice for a small garden.
Explore the Cornus kousa 'Venus', a relatively new hybrid tree with excellent tolerance to drought and diseases.
