Description
Cornus 'Rutcan' ~ Constellation DogwoodConstellation Dogwood is a small deciduous tree with low branching and an upright habit. Its oval dark green leaves turn an attractive purple red in fall. The tiny button flower surrounded by large, well spaced white brackets give the illusion of 5" flowers that bloom in early spring. Prefers part sun and slightly acidic, moist, well drained soil. Constellation has notably good resistance to anthracnose and borers. Type: Tree Origins: C. florida x C.
