Cornus kousa ‘Pévé Sammy’ – (Dogwood)

A distinctive small deciduous tree admired for its variegated foliage and elegant seasonal interest. The softly oval green leaves are attractively edged and mottled with creamy white, often flushed with pink tones, adding brightness throughout the growing season. In late spring, small greenish-white flowers appear, followed by decorative red berries in autumn, which are attractive to birds. As the seasons change, the foliage develops warm pink and red hues before falling. With its compact, well-branched habit, ‘Peve Sammy’ makes an excellent specimen tree for gardens or borders thriving best in sun or light shade and well drained neutral to acidic soil.
