The 'Milky Way' is a beautiful variety of the kousa dogwoods. It differentiates itself by flowering a large quantity of creamy white blooms in early summer and produces bright red, edible, berries in the fall. It is said that the cultivar got its name because the flowers in bloom emulate the billions of stars in the milky way galaxy clustering, swirling, and appearing in abundance, and this is definitely what we have seen from it here at the nursery.

4 very healthy dogwoods

I ordered 4 dogwoods (2 Cloud Nine, 1 Cherokee Chief and 1 Jeans Appalachian Snow to plant in November in Zone 7. I was very impressed with how lovingly they were packaged, how safely and quickly they arrived and how healthy they looked. Good size, branching and healthy root system. I feel confident that they will survive the winter and thrive in the Spring.

Very pleased with my bare rooted trees.

The bare root dogwood trees I received from New Blooms were much nicer than I expected. The trunks were nice and thick and the stocky trees were well branched. But it was the roots that most impressed me,...they were very well developed and dense. The best root system I ever saw on such a small (3-4 foot) tree! I have purchased plants from many different sources over the years and I was pleasantly surprised by New Bloom's quality. Also,....the trees were packed better for shipping than any I received through the mail!
