The Cherokee Chief Dogwood is a hybrid of the American Dogwood and the Chinese Kousa Dogwood. It is a popular choice for home landscapes due to its beautiful spring blooms, attractive fall foliage, and low-maintenance care. It has a rounded crown and a dense branching habit. The leaves are dark green in color and turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and purple in the fall. The Cherokee Chief Dogwood produces clusters of red, four-petaled flowers in late spring. The Cherokee Chief Dogwood is a low-maintenance tree that is tolerant of a variety of soil conditions. It prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil.
