gardengal4 writes: yes, it definitely is Cornus candensis. It can be quite aggressive in some spots (like my shady garden). Some people have trouble growing it though. In the spring there are adorable white flowers. I hope it doesn't try to spread into the lawn. Its getting close! Posted: 9:41 pm on July 19th
