Satomi Dogwood
This Japanese selection will make an elegant specimen tree. Satomi will produce pink-red fruits that appear in autumn.

You will most assuredly note its spectacular not-at-all-white color, which is more like popsicle pink. This kousa blooms not only in a different color, but at a different time; about a month after every other dogwood is through. It is very hardy and flowers later than other dogwoods. Being very hardy and disease resistant, Satomi Dogwood prefers full sun to light shade with a well-drained, somewhat acidic soil. ... get more information
