Cherokee Brave® Dogwood Tree
Add bold color and timeless beauty to your landscape with the Cherokee Brave® Dogwood Tree, an exceptional flowering tree known for its deep red spring blooms, graceful form, and outstanding reliability. In early spring, this tree bursts into color as rich burgundy bracts cover the branches, creating a striking focal point that instantly elevates any outdoor space.
Beyond spring, Cherokee Brave® continues to shine. Its lush green summer foliage provides shade and structure, while fall brings dramatic reddish-purple tones, extending visual interest through multiple seasons. With its naturally upright, rounded shape, this dogwood is perfect for front yards, entryways, patios, and woodland gardens.
This improved variety was specifically bred for strong resistance to dogwood anthracnose, making it a dependable and long-lasting choice compared to traditional dogwoods. Easy to grow and low maintenance once established, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and rewards gardeners with years of dependable beauty.
