Stellar Pink® Dogwood, Cornus 'Rutgan' Stellar Pink®, is a cross between the American and Japanese Dogwood and the results will take your breath away. Great in a sunny or semi-shady spot in your yard, these stunning trees will look beautiful in the perennial border or as a foundation tree and excel as a light shade tree during the hot summer months. But, oh, those blooms! Every spring Stellar Pink® Flowering Dogwood tree covers itself in soft pink blossoms just after the tree leaves out (a sure sign of its Japanese heritage). Make sure you plant the tree somewhere where you can enjoy them up close. Improved disease resistance and low maintenance, all these trees really require is adequate water during the hot summer months. Plant them singly as specimens or in groups for a show-stopping woodland garden!
