Cornus × Venus, known as the Venus Dogwood, is a spectacular deciduous tree celebrated for its elegant form and striking blossoms. Typically growing to heights of 20 feet, this dogwood variety adds grace to garden settings.

As the seasons progress, its green leaves create an attractive backdrop, and in the fall, they often transition to shades of red and purple, adding visual interest. The Venus Dogwood is a valuable and visually appealing addition to gardens and landscapes, often used as a specimen tree or to create enchanting naturalized settings, providing year-round beauty to outdoor spaces.
