    Providing, perhaps, the DEEPEST rosy-pink (?red?) C. kousa ?flowers? available, this large shrub/small tree has glossy dark-green foliage with a reddish midribs; originally found on Mt Fuji. S-PSh/M PP8676

    Smaller in mature stature than Satomi, and with brighter pink, smaller, abundant flowers. Excellent specimen plant for a limited space landscape or large patio container. This is your best bet for a deep pink flowered Chinese dogwood and maximum landscape flexibilirty.
