Cornus florida 'Cherokee Princess'

 

Flowering dogwood

 

Cornus florida 'Cherokee Princess' is a cultivar with large white bracts and it flowers at a young age. 'Cherokee Princess' has a somewhat wider growth habit and its leaves are of a lighter shade of green in the summertime. In autumn, however, the leaves attain the same spectacular colors as the florida. Taking care of the 'Cherokee Princess' is the same as for the rest of the species and the plant is completely winterproof.
