Cornus alternifolia
Alternate-leaf dogwood is a shrub or small tree with short trunk and flat-topped, spreading crown of long, horizontal branches. Bark and twigs are green to reddish-purple. Wide, flat-topped clusters of fragrant, white-cream flowers become clusters of reddish-purple berries, which are favoured in the winter by wildlife. Photo credit: Rebecca Krawczyk.
