Introducing the Cornus controversa Giant Dogwood, a stunning addition to any garden or park. This deciduous tree is native to China, the Himalayas, and Japan and grows up to 50 ft (15 m) tall with multiple tiered branches that create a tiered effect. In summer, flat panicles of white flowers appear on every branch, followed by blue-black berries. In autumn, the leaves turn a rich red-purple color. This tree is resistant to anthracnose and is cultivated in gardens and parks in temperate regions. The leaves are used in folk remedies to relieve pain and reduce swelling, and the fruit provides oil used in the lubricating and soap industry. With its pagodalike shape and layered branching pattern, the Cornus controversa Giant Dogwood is a gorgeous and unique addition to any landscape.
