EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the vibrant beauty of a Cornus Kousa, also known as the Japanese Flowering Dogwood or Benthamidia Kousa, in its full splendor. Originating from Japan and Korea, this hardy shrub or small tree is a member of the Cornaceae family and is celebrated for its stunning flowers and edible berries. The Cornus Kousa is a historical plant that has graced gardens and landscapes for centuries. Its name derives from the Latin "cornus," meaning horn, and "kousa," meaning dogwood, a reference to the distinctive shape of its bark. In this image, the Cornus Kousa is adorned with an abundance of bright red berries, adding a pop of color against the lush green foliage. These berries are not only visually appealing but are also edible, providing a sweet and tart taste that is enjoyed in various traditional dishes in Japan and Korea. The Cornus Kousa is a beloved addition to horticulture, particularly in cooler climates where it thrives. Its elegant white bracts, which resemble flowers, bloom in late spring, creating a breathtaking display that attracts pollinators and adds charm to any garden. This photograph captures the historical, floral, and horticultural significance of the Cornus Kousa, a testament to its enduring beauty and importance in the world of plants.
