Cornus 'Eddie's White Wonder' typically grows to about 6 metres tall with a spread of 3 meters. It has a narrow, upright growth habit with gracefully pendulous branches. In spring, the tree produces large, showy white bracts that resemble flowers, creating a striking display. Later in the year, red berries appear, attracting birds and wildlife. The dark green foliage transforms to brilliant red hues in autumn, providing vibrant seasonal colour.

Planting and Growing Conditions

Plant Cornus 'Eddie's White Wonder' in a sunny to partly shaded location with well-drained, fertile soil. It is tolerant of frost and cooler climates, making it well-suited to many parts of New Zealand. The tree prefers moist but well-drained soil conditions and benefits from regular watering during dry spells, especially when young or newly planted. Mulching helps retain soil moisture and reduces weed growth.

Care and Maintenance

To care for your Cornus 'Eddie's White Wonder', provide regular watering during dry periods while avoiding waterlogging. Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to encourage healthy growth and flowering. Prune the tree after flowering to maintain its shape and remove any dead or diseased wood. Applying mulch around the base supports moisture retention and weed suppression, promoting overall tree health.
