European Cornel (Cornus mas) Gele Kornoelje

This shrub is always flowering very early here. Its a rather rare but stabil species for the Netherlands. In the USA its called Cornelian Cherry because it has edible fruit.

De gele kornoelje bloeit altijd als een van de eerste struiken in Nederland. Deze plant is zeldzaam en staat op de rode lijst, maar is wel stabiel. De struik geeft eetbare bessen.

How graceful and lovely. It's great to see splashes of color early. Right now I'm knee deep in snow. Thanks for putting the sunshine back into my smile. :D
