Cornus Kousa Schmetterling

Cornus Kousa ‘Schmetterling’, also known as Butterfly Dogwood, is a beautiful ornamental plant prized for its stunning display of flowers and foliage. This variety of Kousa Dogwood features large, creamy white bracts that resemble butterfly wings, hence the name “Schmetterling,” which means butterfly in German. The bracts appear in late spring to early summer, creating a striking contrast against the dark green leaves. As the season progresses, the bracts gradually turn pinkish before fading to a reddish hue in autumn. This tree is relatively small, reaching a height of about 6 meters, making it suitable for gardens and landscapes of all sizes. It thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers partial shade to full sun. With its eye-catching blooms and attractive foliage, Cornus Kousa ‘Schmetterling’ is a popular choice among gardeners looking to add beauty and interest to their outdoor spaces.
