Cornus officinalis, commonly known as Japanese Cornel or Japanese Dogwood, is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to East Asia. It is valued for its early spring display of small, yellowish flowers, followed by red, berry-like drupes that attract wildlife. The tree has glossy, dark green leaves that turn yellow to red in the fall, adding seasonal interest.

Typically growing 3-7 meters tall, Cornus officinalis thrives in well-drained soil and partial shade to full sun. It is relatively low-maintenance and tolerant of a range of soil types.
