Dogwood anthracnose threatens the health of the cherished flowering dogwood tree.



Brentwood, Mo. — It's the state tree of Missouri. A tree beloved by home landscapers for its diminutive size and shade tolerance. The attractive four-lobed white flowers it produces are among the first to banish winter's cold and welcome springtime. The fruit it bears feeds songbirds, turkeys and even white-tailed deer.
The flowering dogwood (Cornus florida) has always been a Show-Me-State favorite.
Now however, it's in danger.
