(Cornus florida)
Part Sun to Part Shade

This North American native deciduous tree provides 3-4" diameter white bracts in Mid-Spring surrounding a small cluster of yellow-green flowers that give way to orange-red berries in Summer until eaten by songbirds, including cardinals and robins. Also, attracts pollinators. Its foliage is rich green that turns to shades of rich red to purple-red in the Fall on a broad, upright rounded shape canopy. Mature trees display an attractive scaly gray to dark gray, or brown bark in Winter that adds interest. They grow at a rate of about 12-24" per year. Ideal specimen tree, groupings, rows lining your driveway or property, outdoor spaces like patio, porches, decks for shade, framing corners of your home, and entry ways. Always a visual standout.
