Cornus - Dogwood 
“A Dogwood tree will be monument enough for me.”—Irvin S. Cobb 
CORNUS florida (White-Flowering Dogwood). A native tree, well known to 
everyone, and beautiful all the year. Its large, white, single blossoms are 
conspicuous, coming early in the spring. The foliage is attractive all sum- 
mer, and in the fall colors beautifully with red berries that hang on 
most of the winter. It can be used as a specimen, or in groups as a back- 
ground for shrub borders. In contrast with bright, flowering trees like Red- 
bud, it is especially showy.

C. florida rubra (Red-Flowering Dogwood). This is not a new or uncommon 
tree but one too often overlooked as a means of beautifying home 
grounds. The common white variety may be better known but this pink- 
flowering type affords the loveliest display. Our trees are shipped balled 
and burlapped to insure safe arrival. Once started, they need but simple 
care. Like the white-flowering kind, the leaves of this Dogwood color at-
