Position: Full Sun To Partial Shade Soil: Fertile, Well-Drained, Neutral To Acid Soil Rate Of Growth: Slow-Growing To Average Flowering Period: June Hardiness: Fully Hardy Clusters Of Tiny Green Flowers, Which Are Surrounded By Large, Dark Pink Petal-Like Bracts, Put On A Very Showy Display In Early Summer. On Mature Plants The Flowers Are Followed By Inedible Strawberry-Like Fruit. In Autumn, There Is Even More Interest When The Dark Green Leaves Turn Dark Reddish Purple. This Japanese Dogwood Is Ideal For A Shrub Border And Where Space Is Limited It May Be Fan-Trained Against A Wall. Garden Care: Incorporate A Good Amount Of Well-Rotted Leafmould When Planting. Requires Minimal Pruning Once Established, Although As It Is Naturally Low-Branching And Shrubby, You May Need To Clear A Short, Single Stem When Young. This Should Be Tackled When The Plant Is Fully Dormant From Autumn To Early Spring.
