    Pagoda Dogwood (Cornus alternifolia)
    Photographed May 1.

    A small tree or large shrub with smooth leaves that resemble the leaves of Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida), but the clusters of flowers lack the showy bracts that make the better-known species such a favorite ornamental tree. Father Pitt is reasonably sure of this identification, but corrections are always received with gratitude. This plant was blooming in Bird Park in Mount Lebanon.
