CORNUS KOUSA `HEART THROB`

‘Heart Throb’ will find a place near and dear to your heart once you experience its incredible, long lasting bloom. Like all kousa Dogwoods, ‘Heart Throb’ has a landscape pleasing, rounded shape with deep green, trouble free foliage. What other kousa varieties don’t have is the flower show of ‘Heart Throb’. Flower buds unfurl in June to reveal big, rose-pink bracts that form a ‘flower’ that can be up to 4″ in diameter. This huge bloom is set off by the deep green foliage and can last 4 to 6 weeks depending on the weather. It’s an unforgettable show, but ‘Heart Throb’ is not finished showing off once the bloom is gone. Fall sees bird-attracting, large red fruit that contrasts well with the deep, purplish-red fall foliage color that sets this small tree alight. You won’t find a better small specimen tree anywhere or one with more year round beauty!
