This Cornus florida is the largest urban dogwood I've ever seen. The first limb alone is thicker than most other dogwood trunks. It grows next to a church parking lot in midtown Atlanta- fully open grown.
Dimensions: CBH: 6.2' Height: 30' Spread: 40' The height and spread are measurements from Trees Atlanta and likely will be updated as part of my endeavor to update the Atlanta Champion Tree List. I have serious doubts that this tree is 30' tall, but it's still quite impressive. ~Eli --- On Sat, 7/4/09, Edward Frank <[email protected]> wrote: From: Edward Frank <[email protected]> Subject: [ENTS] Re: Large Urban Trees in Atlanta To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, July 4, 2009, 10:24 PM Eli, When you visit the dogwood (Cornus florida ?) I would be interested in seeing the measurements and photos of the tree. I have not seen one that big.
