Gornus. The Osier Dogwoods, or Cornels 



DOGWOODS are strong growers in almost any soil, and are hardy from the warmer parts of Canada 

 southward. They thrive nearly as well in shaded places as in the open ground. While the bush 

 forms are not remarkable for their flowers, they are especially valued for the brilliant coloring of 

 the bark, which is very attractive in the leafless months of Winter. Many varieties are indigenous through- 

 out the United States and are particularly suited for mass planting or natural effects. Good for decorating 

 along streams or for moist soils. The tree shape varieties are listed on page 42. 



Gornus Alternifolia. (L). The branches are 

 oddly arranged in tiers or layers. The white flowers 

 at the close of May and the bright blue berries which
