Quick Overview:

The darkest pink bracts (blooms) ever found on a Chinese Dogwood can be yours with Scarlet Fire™, the exciting introduction from Rutgers University. Not a hybrid, this tree is the result of many years and countless crosses. It flowers young, offers purple-tinged spring leaves, and concludes the show with bright ball-shaped carmine-fuchsia edible berries.  The fruits are a favorite of birds.
