Cornus Kousa Milky Way

Chinese Dogwood

Cornus kousa 'Milky Way', commonly known as the Milky Way Dogwood, is a beautiful ornamental tree admired for its stunning floral display and unique characteristics.

Below is a detailed overview of the Milky Way Dogwood

  • Leaves: The leaves of Milky Way are oval to elliptical, measuring about 7-12 cm long. They are dark green in color and provide a lush canopy during the growing season. In autumn, the leaves can turn a lovely shade of red or purple, adding seasonal interest. Leaves are arranged oppositely along the stems, creating a dense and attractive foliage display.
  • Flower Structure: Milky Way produces large, showy flowers in late spring to early summer (May to June). The tree features prominent, creamy white bracts that surround the small, yellowish-green flowers, giving the appearance of large, star-like blossoms. The flowers are highly attractive to pollinators, including bees and butterflies, making it an excellent choice for wildlife gardens.
  • Berries: After flowering, the tree produces small, edible fruits that ripen to a pinkish-red color in late summer to early autumn. The fruit is attractive to birds and other wildlife, providing an additional source of interest in the garden. The berries can be eaten raw or used in jams and jellies, although they are often appreciated more for their ornamental value.
  • Height and Spread: Cornus kousa 'Milky Way' typically grows to a height of 4-8 meters with a spread of about 4-6 meters

Milky Way thrives in moist, well-drained soil and can tolerate various soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils. The tree grows best in full sun, requiring at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. While it can tolerate partial shade, flowering and overall growth may be reduced in low light conditions. Minimal pruning is required, but it can be done to shape the tree and remove any dead or damaged branches. The best time for pruning is in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
