Compact and upright in shape, Cornus ornamental trees generally don\u2019t get overly big. They tend to flower profusely and these flowers last for a quite a long time (as they are in fact bracts). Although there are 3 families of Cornus (flowering dogwood), Cornus Kousa (Chinese Flowering Dogwood) and Cornus Florida (American Flowering Dogwood) are best suited to our UK climate.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Closely related, Cornus Kousa originates from China while Cornus Florida originates from the east coast of North America. Cornus Kousa differs from the Cornus Florida in that it tends to have a more erect growing habit and flowers a bit later than Cornus Florida (by circa 1 month) and its flower bracts tend to be pointy as opposed to round. It is also considered to be somewhat hardier. Cornus Kousa often has a coloured and \/ or patterned bark, adding extra interest through the winter months.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2935\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2935\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2935\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Flowering-Dogwood-trees.jpg\" alt=\"Flowering Dogwood trees - Cornus Florida Rainbow and Cornus Kousa Miss Satomi\" width=\"600\" height=\"470\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2935\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Flowering Dogwood trees &#8211; Cornus Florida Rainbow and Cornus Kousa Miss Satomi<\/p><\/div>\n<p>THE FLORAL DISPLAY<br \/>\nFlowering Dogwood trees are showy no doubt about it and the blooms are very long lasting. The actual flowers tend to be clusters of tiny blooms, usually green or white. The impressive floral \u2018show\u2019 is created by the coloured bracts (essentially protective extra leaves for the flowers). The flower bracts tend to be large, petal-like and are usually in various shades of white or pink, sometimes even red. They are <strong>always produced in abundance<\/strong> and remain in good condition for several weeks (showy flowers rarely last that long) and some even change from white to pink as they age.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2937\" style=\"width: 516px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/plant\/cornflorcherochie\/cornus-florida-cherokee-chief.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2937\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Cornus-Florida-Cherokee-Chief.jpg\" alt=\"Cornus Florida Cherokee Chief\" width=\"506\" height=\"842\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2937\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cornus Florida Cherokee Chief &#8211; commands attention<\/p><\/div>\n<p>THE FRUIT<br \/>\nMost flowering dogwoods produce a fruit after flowering which is usually edible and about the size of a strawberry. On some cultivars, the fruit is sweet and delicious. Should you decide not to harvest the fruit and leave them on trees, the birds will thank you for it.<\/p>\n<p>THE FOLIAGE<br \/>\nMost flowering dogwoods have rich green foliage throughout the summer months. The foliage really comes into its own in the autumn, when vibrant hues of mostly reds and purples take over as the leaves change colour dramatically.<\/p>\n<p>THE TREE SIZE<br \/>\nAs ornamental trees, Cornus Kousa and Cornus Florida won\u2019t get larger than 10 metres tall as an absolute maximum and most won\u2019t be larger than 6 or 7 metres. Some varieties such as <a title=\"cornus florida cloud nine\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/plant\/cornflorclounin\/cornus-florida-cloud-nine.html\">Cornus Florida Cloud Nine<\/a> won\u2019t get taller than 3 metres. As such, flowering dogwood trees are very suitable for smaller gardens. If required, both Cornus Kousa and Cornus Florida respond well to pruning.<\/p>\n<p>VARIETIES IN STOCK<br \/>\nHere at Paramount Plants, we now have circa 14 varieties of flowering dogwood in stock.
