A tree which took my eye at Glenarm Castle walled garden was this Chinese Dogwood whcih was just coming into flower.
Chinese Dogwoods are a small conical tree, ideal for lawn specimen work like it is used here in Glenarm.
Now although it has these big creamy flowers, which last numerous weeks, the autumn foliage colour is just amazing. The leaves go a super red colour in the autumn before falling off.
If you have cornus alba in the garden you'll be familiar with the autumn colours that the Cornus can bring to the garden
