Cornus controversa 'June Snow' (commonly called Giant Dogwood) is a deciduous flowering tree. In late spring creamy white flowers form into clusters and are held above the leaves. Horizontal branches appear to be layered. Blooms give rise to blue/black berries which the songbirds enjoy. In the fall, the leaves turn an orange to red color before they are shed.
MapleWalk is the private garden of Lib Jones and Tom Nunnenkamp in the SouthPark area of Charlotte, NC. While the garden derives its name from the over 90 different varieties of Japanese maples, MapleWalk is also known for its collection of dogwoods, redbuds, conifers, camellias, and colorful herbaceous perennials. With 1600 feet of stone lined paths, the steps, where necessary, are accompanied by sturdy handrails. Group guided tours are available by contacting: Info@maplewalkgarden.com
