The Faithful Dogwood

This dogwood tree has been in my parent's yard for 70 years. Even though part of the tree was cut down in the 1960s for a house edition and part lost to a storm in the 1990s, the tree has never failed to bloom in the spring.

I love Dogwoods too — it's one of my favorite memories from living in TN and NC in my youth. What a lovely photo you've created of this old tree's offering for the year.

So pretty! I love it's colour and your composition. We bought my mom a pink dogwood for mother's day years and years ago. It's so pretty in her yard but not at the blooming stage yet.

This is quite stunning. The lighting and the repeating shape of the leaves works so well.
