The tree often reaches 15 to 20 feet in height with a low, broad head and tiers of horizontal branches. It can also be trained in the form of a large broad shrub with multiple branches from the base. The four large bracts surrounding each cluster of tiny yellow flowers opening in early spring produce the showy display of white for which the tree is famed. In autumn, the leaves turn to gorgeous shades of orange, Scarlett and crimson The bright red fruit borne in small clusters adds to the colorful autumn effect. In winter, the button ? shape buds are prominent on the tips of the greenish or redish ? brown twigs. The dogwood grows best in light shade, but will tolerate full sun. The most favorable soil is moist, fertile loam, slightly acid to neutral. The addition of peat or leafmold improves nearly all garden soils for the dogwood. A mulch of leaves or other coarse material is especially beneficial to dogwoods. It keeps the soil moist near the surface where their roots are most active The best time to transplant dogwoods is the fall and winter through March. Plant them very shallow -- no deeper than they came out of the ground. Nursery ? grown tiees that have been root ? pruned and grown in full sunlight are far superior to those dug up on the woods.
