Red Dogwood (Cornus florida var. rubra) is a spectacular spring-flowering ornamental tree prized for its rich red blooms, graceful branching structure, and classic landscape charm. In early to mid-spring, deep rosy-red bracts cover the tree’s elegant, horizontally layered branches, creating a dramatic focal point in lawns, woodland gardens, or entryway plantings. Its vibrant green summer foliage provides a lush backdrop before transitioning to beautiful shades of red and burgundy in fall. Combining bold color with year-round interest, Red Dogwood is a timeless addition that brings warmth, beauty, and seasonal character to any landscape.

• Red Dogwood produces rich red blooms in early to mid-spring, creating a bold and elegant display that stands out beautifully in the landscape.
• This ornamental tree thrives in USDA hardiness zones 5–9, performing best in areas with moderate temperatures and well-drained soil.
• The best time to plant Red Dogwood is in early spring or fall, allowing the roots to establish during cooler, less stressful weather conditions.
• It prefers partial shade to filtered sunlight, especially in warmer climates, and grows best in consistently moist, well-drained soil with supplemental watering during dry spells.
• An interesting fact about Red Dogwood is that its showy “petals” are actually colorful bracts surrounding tiny true flowers, and it produces bright red berries in fall that attract birds and wildlife.
