My backyard dogwood tree is just outside the kitchen pantry window and it’s a welcome sight each morning. In the backyard, the tree itself is in the shadow of Old Man Tree, the giant red oak tree that is just off the back deck. Even in the shadows of that noble old tree, the white flowers of the dogwood stand out.
The blooming season is here and in this morning’s sunlight the dogwood is standing tall.
For the next few weeks, as flowers and young leaves emerge, I will post a picture of the dogwood on Wednesday. It’s a reminder that Spring and Mother Nature march on, even as we stay home under the shelter and shade of the dogwood.
