The 'Blue Ray' dogwood shares all of the excellent features of the kousa dogwood, while adding a deep bluish glow to the leaf color and a more modest 15 to 20 ft. size. It has plentiful white/cream colored bracts and like all kousa dogwoods provides many seasons of interest.

We carry a large number of Kousa dogwoods because they check all the boxes. If you’ve seen a mature specimen, we don’t have to tell you that they are stunningly beautiful. Exfoliating bark, outstanding horizontal structure, glossy leaves, attractive fruit and plentiful flowering bracts make it a tree for all seasons. Once established they also tend to be more robust against pathogens and fungal diseases than the traditional North American dogwood, cornus florida, which is why we offer many varieties of kousa and hybrid florida x kousa dogwoods. Of all the trees in our inventory, kousa dogwood offers a combination of hardiness, beauty, and variety that is difficult to match.

Apache Red Flowering Dogwood has taken off

Packaged very well, planted immediately in early May, now just past May 29 has leafed out completely.. Very nice branching. I am impressed with the quality of the stock. Bought many exotic trees from them over the last few years. I love my Very rare Alley Cat Redbud.

Stellar Pink Dogwood Rutgan

Early May, received last 1 available, beautifully branched 3ft +, and was very dormant. Now coming to life on May 22 with vigous growth starting on all branches. Wrapped tightly and only one tip was slightly damaged of 15. Cannot wait to see full varigated leaves expanded. Thank you.

Dogwoods doing well

Two dogwoods (30 inches) arrived 2 weeks ago. The box was a bit beat up, but the trees were in excellent condition. Planted them according to instructions and they are waking up and looking good. Both trees came looking very healthy with nice branching. Would definitely buy from this nursery again (Boston).

Nice Trees!

I ordered two of these along with one raging red dogwood. They all arrived in the same box but were well packaged. All we're dormant when they arrived but all of them appear to be healthy and are leafing out. The customer service with this company is very good if not exceptional.They already had my order boxed up when I asked if I could swap out one of these with the raging red dogwood. They happily did it. I would definitely recommend this company
