Appalachian Spring Dogwood is a small native deciduous tree with a relatively upright branching and rounded crown. Its green foliage turns an attractive red to purple in fall. Flower clusters with large creamy white brackets bloom from early to mid spring attracting butterflies. Prefers part sun and slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soil. Appalachian Spring is highly resistant to anthracnose.
Cornus florida is a host for Spring Azure butterfly and Cecropia Silkmoth, and supports several specialized bees. The fruits are browsed by songbirds and mammals. Learn more about planting for butterflies with Georgia natives with this brochure.
