ℹ The Heart Throb® Kousa Dogwood Tree, is a must-have for any garden enthusiast! Its deep pink blooms can reach up to 4 inches wide and are a sight to behold, lasting up to 2 months—longer than most other Kousa Dogwood varieties. As summer fades, this tree continues to steal the show, with its vibrant green leaves transforming into a brilliant display of bright red to orange in the fall. Not only does it bring incredible beauty to your landscape, but it also produces sweet, edible berries that attract birds and can be enjoyed in culinary creations. This hardy Japanese Dogwood is naturally resistant to common dogwood diseases and thrives in colder climates, making it a reliable choice for gardens in zones 5 to 8. Perfect for smaller spaces or as a striking focal point, the Heart Throb® offers year-round interest and a pop of color when you need it most.
