Cornus hongkongensis, also known as Hong Kong Dogwood, is an evergreen shrub can grow up to 50 ft tall and boasts beautiful elliptic or oblong leaves that stay green year-round. In spring, it produces yellowish or white blooms that eventually transform into compound fruit in shades of red or yellowish red. This plant can thrive in a variety of soil types, from light and sandy to heavier clay soils, and can handle partial shade or full sun. It prefers moist soil, making it a great option for a garden near a stream or pond. Bring a touch of exotic beauty to your yard with the Cornus hongkongensis.
