The Pink Dogwood is a small, elegant tree that typically grows 15–25 feet tall with a wide, layered branching structure. In early spring, it's covered in soft pink bracts that surround tiny true flowers, creating a breathtaking display. Summer brings lush green leaves, which turn red to purple in fall, followed by bright red berries that attract birds in winter. Its four-season appeal, compact size, and graceful form make it a favorite for front yards, cottage gardens, or under the canopy of larger trees. This classic choice brings charm, color, and wildlife value to any setting.
