Rubra Flowering Dogwood Tree (Cornus Florida) Seeds(1 Seeds)

The Rubra Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida 'Rubra') is a rare and gorgeous deciduous tree, known for its showy pink to rosy-red spring blooms and graceful form. In early spring, the tree produces large, eye-catching bracts that range from soft pink to deep rose, creating a stunning display against its dark green foliage. These blooms, which last for several weeks, are a hallmark of the Rubra and attract pollinators to the garden. As the seasons progress, the tree's leaves turn a lush green during summer before transforming into a vibrant mix of red, orange, and purple in the fall, providing a brilliant autumn show. The Rubra also produces small clusters of red berries that attract birds and add additional interest throughout late summer and fall.Typically growing to a height of 15 to 30 feet, with a broad, rounded canopy, the Rubra Flowering Dogwood is ideal as a specimen tree in smaller landscapes or as part of a mixed border in larger gardens. It thrives in well-drained, slightly acidic soil and prefers partial shade, especially in hotter climates, to protect its foliage. They make great bonsai specimens as well.
