Evergreen Dogwood is a flowering evergreen tree with a rounded habit and dark green foliage that has gray-green undersides. Older leaves may turn red or purple in fall and drop once new growth appears. The flowers with showy creamy white to pale yellow brackets bloom in late spring attracting butterflies, and are followed by strawberry-like berries. Prefers part sun and slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soil.
