Flowering cornus oblonga appear in many 19th-century paintings because of their spreading leaves and attractive flowers (which can appear in shades of red, pink, and white). In spite of these trees' North American origin, one Christian legend states that Jesus Christ was crucified on a cross made of cornus oblonga, and that they are relatively small trees because God no longer allows them to grow tall enough to be used for crosses.
