Large Pink-White Blooms + Strong Disease Resistance
Why Stellar Pink Dogwood Trees?
A hybrid dogwood developed for a unique color and easy, strong growth, the Stellar Pink Dogwood Tree lives up to its name, with the best features of the Cornus florida and Cornus kousa in one amazing package. The Stellar Dogwood is known for its vigorous growth and its large profusion of pink-white blooms.
Even better? It's resistant to common diseases like anthracnose and dogwood borer. Delivering a dense, upright habit and uniform growth in a manageably-sized tree, the Stellar Pink packs a huge punch of color in almost any landscape space. Four showy pink bracts open flat on each bloom, giving you a cascading blanket of color that contrasts beautifully against dark green leaves.
You get several seasons of interest because the Stellar's foliage transitions to a blazing purple-red hue in fall. And because it's a hybrid cultivar, bred for the best benefits, the Stellar Pink doesn't produce messy fruit, unlike similar varieties that require clean-up and other maintenance. Plus, it resists disease and deer while bringing graceful wildlife like butterflies to your garden...giving you the best of both worlds.

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a planting site that receives full sunlight (about six hours of sun) or filtered shade. Dogwood trees are highly adaptable to many soil types, but they thrive in moist, fertile soils high in organic matter.
Dig a hole that is three times the diameter of your tree’s root ball and of equal depth. Place your tree in the planting hole, keeping the top of the root ball even with the ground. Adjust your tree’s position/angle then use the original soil to backfill the planting hole. Water the area immediately to settle the soil.
2. Watering: It’s best to water your tree once or twice a week. Generally, you'll want to water until the soil is moist 2 to 3 inches down.
3. Fertilizing: Apply fertilizer sparingly in April or May. Any general-purpose fertilizer will work.
