I was at my son's Science fair last night and snapped a few pictures of the dogwood that was blooming.The dogwood that's flowering now is called the Korean Dogwood. Its botanic name is Cornus 'kousa'.
They are more disease resistant than the traditional dogwood. They look quite a bit different since they flower after the leaves are out. (the traditional Cornus florida flowers before the leaves open)
Looks like a beautiful Dogwood tree.
ReplyDeleteAll of the Kousa's seem to have been particularly nice this year. We've been having a particularly cool and damp Spring, which I think has been a huge factor in their blooms. This time last year we had almost 100F.
