Our dogwoods are beautiful small ornamental trees with attractive summer foliage and fall color. Many American gardeners plant dogwoods for their ornamental beauty, but in Russia and elsewhere they are prized for their heavy production of delicious fruit. ABOUT CORNUS MAS Also called "Cornelian Cherry", it is a beautiful dogwood that produces heavy crops of bright, oblong, sweet, juicy, aromatic fruit that makes delicious preserves.
