This tree has a story.

It sits in the front yard of our neighbor 3 houses away. The home owners are an elderly gentleman and his wife of over 60 years. When they moved to Kansas City to be near their daughter (who lives directly across the street from them), the husband dug up a wild, dogwood seedling from the woods near their long time home in Northeast Oklahoma. The couple brought that tiny plant with them to their new home in Missouri. The fragile twig not only survived, but it also thrived. I feel honored to now be able to present it and its story to the world
