wisconsin, my kousa arent leafed out yet either. remember, the bracts arent going to
look like anything for a while. they will be small and green and then slowly will
get bigger and turn white... but then you will have them for a month or more.

I had a Kousa Dogwood planted last fall and its about 6 feet tall. It
is now May 5th and I live in the Boston area and there are still no
signs of leaves on the tree. The buds have been visible for a month
or so and on some of them you can even see they opened a little but
nothing came there. It's as if it stunted. My newly planted Japanese
Maple is completely full of leaves now. Does anyone know if this is
normal for this time of year for the Kousa to still not have any
leaves or is there a problem? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
