Pacific dogwood

Cornus nuttallii

Pacific dogwood is a small native tree prized for spring bloom, layered branching, and bright fall structure beneath larger canopies or at woodland edges.

Pacific dogwood brings four-season interest: showy spring bracts, handsome leaves, autumn color, and fruit that can support birds. Around Fairview it is especially meaningful where a garden wants native identity without the size of a full canopy tree.
