description for "Dogwood: Cornus x 'KN30-8' PP16,309"
Venus® Dogwood is a gorgeous specimen for a garden. The shamrock-shaped blooms are 6" wide and symmetrical, with 4 huge petals surrounding a tiny green center. Float them in a bowl, or cut an entire branch and display in water for spring color indoors. A fully-blooming tree is an outstanding sight! Leaves are dark green turning to yellow with red highlights in the fall. Grows 15-18 feet tall with a spread of 18-22 feet. Zones 5-8. Edited by M.Tate.
