Native to North America, the natural range includes most of the eastern U.S. from Maine to Florida and from Michigan to Texas, extending into Missouri, Arkansas, and Oklahoma (USGS 1999). The species lack of hardiness limits its use in the nursery industry and provenance is crucial in seeking hardiness. This accession was sampled in USDA cold hardiness zone 5b, where the surrounding zone is 6a. According to Schmitz, A. (The Brenton Arboretum, pers. comm. 11/21/2019), a site visit to this population on 9 November 2019 noted: "A few of the taller Cornus florida at Big Buffalo Creek Fen still had leaves but leaves were killed by freezing temperatures. Almost all tree species in this valley were without leaves as a result of previously reported freezing temperatures. Cornus florida plants at higher elevations a couple miles to the west of this collection site were in peak fall color and fruits were bright glossy orange/red in color". Thus genetics of this accession representing the extreme northwestern edge of the species native range and within a colder microclimate may be best adapted to more northern latitudes or areas that experience extreme temperature fluctuations. | 2104853 | Ames 35289 |
