Gray Dogwood
Cornus racemosa

Gray Dogwood is shade tolerant.  It suckers, so is will often spread.  It grows to an average height of 6 to 10 feet.  It prefers poorly-drained to well-drained soil.  It has very good wildlife value, and grows moderately.  It has attractive white flowers and fruit for birds.  It is a good choice for wildlife plantings and uplands.  It is highly susceptible to deer browse, and protective measures should be taken in areas of high deer population.
