Dogwood Cornelian Cherry 'Golden Glory'

Latin Name: Cornus mas 'Golden Glory'

A beautiful small specimen tree for general landscape use; covered in bright yellow flowers in very early spring before the leaves and bright red berries in summer, compact habit of growth, but some suckering.

Golden Glory Cornelian Cherry Dogwood is a multi-stemmed deciduous tree with a shapely oval form. Its average texture blends into the landscape, but can be balanced by one or two finer or coarser trees or shrubs for an effective composition.

This is a relatively low maintenance tree, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It is a good choice for attracting birds to your yard.
