Cornus 'Venus'
Choose Venus® Dogwood if you want a bold white-flowering specimen tree with better disease resistance than many traditional dogwoods. The tradeoff: it needs real space and is not a screening plant.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A | The oversized white spring bloom makes it a clear focal tree where it has room to show its branching. |
| Growth Rate | B | It builds presence at a steady pace, but it is not the tree for instant shade or quick screening. |
| Maintenance | B | Disease resistance helps, but it still needs good siting, mulch, and watering during establishment. |
| Deer Resistance | C | Young trees like this can be browsed or rubbed by deer, so protect it while it establishes where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | C | Its spreading habit needs open lawn or bed space rather than a narrow foundation pocket. |
| Screening Value | D | This is an ornamental specimen tree, not a privacy screen. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Venus® Dogwood as a specimen, not a border filler. Give it open space, decent soil moisture, and protection while young; it performs best where the spring flowers can be viewed easily.

No, it is a hybrid that keeps the dogwood look while adding vigor and disease resistance.
Yes, but flowering is generally stronger with more sun and even moisture.
Very little; remove crossing or damaged branches, but do not shear it.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
