Snow Tower Columnar Dogwood: A Structured Landscape Solution

The Snow Tower Columnar Dogwood is a distinct cultivar of Cornus kousa, recognized for its narrow, vertical growth habit. Unlike spreading dogwood varieties, this tree maintains a compact silhouette, making it a practical choice for tight garden spaces, entryways, or as a formal vertical accent in mixed borders.

Seasonal Characteristics and Growth

This tree is characterized by its late spring bloom, during which it produces a dense display of white bracts. The foliage remains a deep, consistent green throughout the summer months. As temperatures drop, the leaves transition into shades of red, providing extended visual interest into the autumn season. The tree naturally retains its upright form, reducing the necessity for intensive structural pruning to maintain its shape.

Form: Columnar, upright growth habit suitable for narrow planting sites.
Bloom Period: Late spring, providing significant white floral display.
Maintenance: Requires standard watering and soil drainage typical of Cornus kousa species.
