    To identify any dogwood, you can break the leaf and you will see small spider like threads in the leaf.

    The Kousa fruit produced by this tree is in itself another lovely reason for growing it as the fruit is bright red and raspberry-textured, increasing its ornamental value.

    Although the stronger resilience to pests and diseases makes it more desirable than Cornus florida from a maintenance POV, the exfoliating bark can increase maintenance.

    The flowers on this tree are not actual flowers, but rather modified leaves that look like flowers.

    I remember this plant species name by the 'K' in Kousa that is similar to Katsura, and they are all asian trees.

    It has shallow roots so it does not like to be transplanted

    Planting this plant in a clayey soil can lead to root rot.
