Bill,
Dog wood is a shrub????
These look like individual plants????
They ALMOST remind me of ummmmmmmmm...
May apples, umbrella's, oh, I can't think of
their real name now. The lines through the leaves.
That flower is pretty, does look like a dogwood flower.
But what a fall color!!!!
What zone/??????

Very nice, thanks for the info!!!!

From my own experience, it grows well in a Zone 4! Probably then, it would also do well in your zone?
