    Plant Care Tips

    🌿 Planting & Care for Milky Way Dogwood Tree 🌸

    🌱 Planting

    Choose a location with well-drained, slightly acidic soil and about 4–6 hours of sunlight daily ☀️. In warmer climates, afternoon shade helps protect the tree from stress.

    Dig a hole twice as wide and as deep as the root ball. Place the tree so the top of the root ball sits level with the surrounding soil. Backfill gently, firm the soil, and water thoroughly 💧.

    Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch 🌾 around the base to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch a few inches away from the trunk.

    💧 Watering

    Water your Milky Way Dogwood once per week, increasing frequency during hot or dry periods. Check moisture by inserting your finger 3–4 inches into the soil—if dry, water deeply.

    👉 Drooping leaves may indicate the tree needs more water

    👉 Yellow or pale leaves may signal overwatering

    🌸 Fertilizing

    No fertilizer is required during the first growing season. In following years, apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer (10-10-10) in spring (April or May) 🌼. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers to support healthy blooms and foliage.

    With proper planting and simple care, your Milky Way Dogwood Tree will thrive 🌳, delivering stunning blooms, rich seasonal foliage, and lasting beauty year after year 🌺.
