FREE: White Flowering Dogwood Tree Seeds

The listing, White Flowering Dogwood Tree Seeds has ended.

Flowering dogwood (Cornus florida) grows well throughout the northern and central regions of Florida located within U.S. Department of Agriculture hardiness zones 8 and 9, according to the University of Florida. The trees have a rounded shape and are deciduous. Springtime fills the tree's canopy with white or pink flowers with clusters of red fruits following the blooming stage. Birds and small mammals use the berries as food. The tree works well used in backgrounds, as a specimen or planted under larger trees such as oaks.

These trees grow best in a partial shade environment, growing up to 30 feet in height with a 20-foot spread at maturity. Flowering dogwood prefers growing in rich, well-drained soils that are moist, so regular watering benefits the tree's growth and flowering. Gardeners should plant trees where they receive good air circulation to cut down on diseases.
