She’s beautiful!  
Thank you for sharing.  
I L💖VE Dogwoods! Sadly, they don’t typically do well in my Zone 9B, but I have come close to giving one a try. I just don’t have much shade. 😕

Yes they are a understory plant, however I am growing one in full sun. You have to water well and fertilize. You may also try a Kousa Dogwood which is more tolerant of northern climates.

What state are you in?
