CELESTIAL SHADOW® CHINESE DOGWOOD


The very unique Celestial Shadow Chinese Dogwood is a cross between the American Dogwood and the Asian Kousa Dogwood. It has bright yellow and green variegated leaves whose margins turn pink in the fall, maturing to bright red. In spring, abundant white flowers are produced. Fall brings a fantastic display of color in hues of pink, light red, and purple.

The Celestial Shadow is quite adaptable, but prefers moist, well-drained sites in full sun or partial shade.
