Pretty pink and white Dogwood flowers at Dunedin Botanic Garden, New Zealand. Cornus species. I asked Nigel to take this photo for me as they were too high for me to reach! Taken 05 Dec 2017. Click on the photo to enlarge
The variations of pink and white on each petal is glorious! Even more beautiful with the enlargement of the photo. I think it is even prettier than the Pink Dogwood Trees that I remember from my childhood. Thank-you, and Nigel too!
Our pleasure to share the beauty, and yes you’re right about viewing the enlargement – its well worth clicking through to the large version! Thanks Ellen!
Hi Ted! I had Ellen in mind when I asked Nigel to get a photo of these flowers, as she likes them. I think I’d previously mentioned to her that we’d seen one with pretty pink flowers at the botanic garden. So here it is!
Very pretty, & delicate colouring.

We see plenty of horse chestnuts around in NZ, and dogwoods seem to do very well down here in the south so I’ve come to like them very much!
