The Dogwood, Red Cloud, Cornus florida 'Red Cloud', has leaves that are crinkled around the margins and pink bracts. It offers year round interest with red to pink spring flowers, distinctive, oval, vertically curved leaves in summer, and scarlet red leaves in the fall with glossy red berries that persist into winter. These fruits are also a favorite of many birds as well as squirrels, rabbits and raccoons. Red Cloud Dogwood prefers a acidic, moist, well drained site. Partial shade is preferable for best performance. Dogwoods are somewhat susceptible to drought, so be sure that sufficient water is provided during dry periods.
