Whitened Blooming Dogwood – The Particular Woods That Painters Like To Colour

This breath-taking, gorgeous tree not only allures deer, geese, ducks, quail, pheasants, grouse, songbirds and butterflies, but also has inspired many an artist to attempt to duplicate its beauty upon canvas. Up to thirty-six known species of birds are attracted to the flowering dogwood.

The white, blooming dogwood, the ancient shrub discerning with 1731, is deciduous with levels that regular 15 foot – 30ft and also a propagate connected with twenty five -35 ft. No one denies the quiet elegance and raw attractiveness of this beloved tree with its fragrant flowers. There is no doubt that it ranks in the top five of the most desired flowering trees. These trees are native to America, but have been exported globally for their beauty.

The white, flowering dogwood, a native tree cultivated in 1731, is deciduous with heights that average 15 ft – 30ft and a spread of 25 -35 ft. It has pure white blooms which mature into red, elongated fruit. The actual dogwood flowers are tiny, yellowish-green button-like clusters, but each of these clusters are surrounded by four delicate petal-like bracts which open flat, giving the appearance of a single, 3-4″ diameter flower. They bloom in early spring, but normally overlap the bloom period of the redbuds.

The dark green, oval leaves (3-6″ long) gradually change with colors ranging from a scarlet red to a maroon. George Washington planted the white flowering dogwood at Mt. Vernon and Thomas Jefferson planted it at Monticello. Medicinal teas were made from the bark by early Native Americans. The inner bark of the flowering dogwood root contains comin [an alkaloid], which was used by the natives as a treatment for malaria. They also timed the planting of their crops by the onset of the flowering of the dogwood. The reddish-brown wood is extremely hard and has been used to make tool handles.

The white, flowering dogwood grows slowly, but once they take root they are very hardy, able to withstand both stress and drought. They grow in moderately moist, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade, but they prefer rich, acidic, loamy or sandy soils. The red fruits which mature in the early fall and normally last until the middle of December, are poisonous to humans but a delight to birds.

If the dogwood is grown in the shade, it will be less dense, grow more quickly, have poor fall color and yield less flowers. They prefer sun with part shade.

This tree, especially if stressed, is susceptible to some diseases, the most serious being the dogwood anthracnose. A cool wet spring or fall weather allows this infection, which appears to affect trees that have been stressed or suffered from drought. If the infection is allowed to persist over consecutive years, it will kill the trees. Regular (but not overhead irrigation) in dry weather will keep the tree healthy. The tree should be planted in an area that allows the leaves to stay as dry as possible. Take special care when first planting, as trees that have been sliced or wounded at this stage, may develop problems as it matures. Sound advice can be found at a nursery where horticulturists specialize in the care of these beautiful trees.

The white, flowering dogwood is especially stunning when planted against a backdrop of evergreens or red and pink dogwoods, but it stands out all on its own also. The beauty and intoxicating fragrance will bring tranquil peace to any landscape it graces.
