When planting the White Dogwood, it's important to choose a location with well-drained soil and partial shade to full sun exposure. In general, the White Dogwood does best when planted directly in the ground, as it can grow quite large over time. If planting in a pot, ensure that it is large enough to accommodate the root system of the tree and use a high-quality potting soil. When planting in the ground, dig a hole that is about twice as wide and just as deep as the root ball, and backfill with a mixture of soil and organic matter. Water the tree thoroughly after planting and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged until the tree is established. With the proper planting and care, the White Dogwood is sure to thrive and become a beloved addition to any landscape.

The White Dogwood prefers moist soil and partial shade, making it ideal for planting in a woodland garden or near the edge of a forest. Watering should be done consistently but not excessively, providing enough water to keep the soil slightly damp but not waterlogged. It is important to avoid letting the soil dry out completely. This plant prefers dappled sunlight, meaning it should be planted in a location that gets a mix of sun and shade throughout the day to promote healthy growth and prevent damage from too much direct sunlight.
