Cornus

Nice capture, Paul! Interesting with the sun and shade.

My shadow I'm afraid. It's an early morning shot with the sun behind me. lol Everything is just waking up.

Lovely shrub: does it usually flower this early?

I like this plant, may be something I have to think about..
Well, your shadow casts some interest to the pic!

My Cornus looks like it's dead...but its not. Here it never opens its buds much before June.

Love these - no bracts on mine yet . . .
