Cornus florida 'Cherokee Princess' ~ Cherokee Princess Dogwood
The Cherokee Princess Dogwood, scientifically known as Cornus florida 'Cherokee Princess,' is a popular cultivar of the native Flowering Dogwood tree. It is highly regarded for its abundant and showy white flowers that bloom in early spring, typically before the leaves emerge. The flowers are larger than those of the typical Flowering Dogwood and create a stunning display against the tree's dark green foliage. The Cherokee Princess Dogwood is a small to medium-sized deciduous tree that is often used as an ornamental tree in landscapes and gardens. It prefers partial shade and well-drained soil.
