    The ‘Galilean’ Dogwood is a great small stature addition to add to your landscaping. Its small stature makes it a great option to plant under utility lines. The multi-stem structure of the tree makes it a great option to help block the sun from coming into your windows or to shade a patio. The beautiful, but simple, white flowers can add some interest to your sitting areas in the spring. In early fall the tree will produce smaller red berries that will last into the winter, maintaining ornamental interest into the colder months. This dogwood turns a beautiful red to orange color in the fall as well.
