About This Plant
Cornus kousa Rosy Teacups Dogwood is a Korean / Japanese Dogwood, a East Asia (Japan, Korea, China) ornamental.
Showy white-bracted blooms in late spring (after leaves), strawberry-like red fruits in fall, mottled exfoliating bark. More disease-resistant than Cornus florida; LESS susceptible to dogwood anthracnose.
Plant in part shade to full sun, in humus-rich, well-drained, slightly acidic; consistent moisture in summer soil. Hardy USDA Zone 5 to 8. Long-lived. Generally deer-resistant once established.
If you'd like a Pacific Northwest native tree with similar grace, consider Cornus nuttallii (Pacific Dogwood), Acer circinatum (Vine Maple), Arbutus menziesii (Pacific Madrone), or Amelanchier alnifolia (Saskatoon). These provide bird food, pollinator support, and Indigenous food heritage in your landscape.
