To me, dogwoods represent the best kind of day in the south - lazy afternoons at my grandparents house, rocking in the hammock with a belly full of homecooked food… Waving to people that passed by on the country roads while the paper thin flowers of the blooming dogwoods fluttered in the wind.

ahhh, I love North Carolina in the springtime.

My favorite is white dogwood flowers, but they also come in red and pink.
