Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip:
Peach blooms love a supporting cast. Keep nearby colors soft and intentional, whites, creams, and deep greens, so the spring display feels elevated instead of busy. A dark evergreen backdrop makes the bloom color look richer, and a simple ring of low shrubs at the base keeps the whole planting looking finished year-round.

Why plant Powell's Peach Flowering Dogwood?
If classic dogwoods feel like a tradition you love, but you want something a little more special, this one is your answer. In spring, it blooms in soft peachy-pink tones, a rare, warm color that feels gentler than bright pink and more unexpected than white. It’s the kind of bloom that looks especially beautiful in morning light, like the landscape is blushing a little.
After the spring show, it settles into rich green foliage and that signature dogwood branching that always looks graceful, even when the tree is simply being itself. As the season turns, the leaves shift into red to burgundy fall color, and berries add another layer of interest for both you and the local birds. It’s a true four-season performer, just with a more uncommon, collector-worthy spring palette.
How to use Powell's Peach Flowering Dogwood in the landscape?
Plant it where those spring blooms can be enjoyed up close, near an entry walk, along a driveway curve, or framed by front-yard beds. It’s happiest in part shade, especially with morning sun and protection from harsh afternoon heat, making it perfect beneath taller trees or along woodland edges. Use it as a focal point in a foundation planting, pairing it with hydrangeas, azaleas, and evergreen structure plants for a layered look that stays beautiful after bloom. To make the peachy tones stand out, place it near deep green evergreens or darker shrubs, and underplant with white bulbs and soft perennials for a clean, bright spring scene.
Frequently Asked Questions
The spring bloom display is a soft peachy-pink. What you see are colorful bracts surrounding the tiny true flowers, creating that classic dogwood look with a warm, uncommon twist.
Plant in well-drained soil and water deeply during the first growing season to establish roots. Dogwoods prefer consistent moisture and benefit from a mulch ring to keep roots cool, just keep mulch a few inches away from the trunk. Morning sun with afternoon shade is ideal for best long-term performance.
Prune lightly and only as needed, removing dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Late winter to early spring is a good time for structural pruning, but keep it minimal so you preserve the natural branching form and protect next spring’s bloom potential.
