Narrative

Dogwood Family (Cornaceae) is composed of less than 100 species that are widely distributed. This group could easily be combined with the Carrot Family, but because these are mostly woody plants, they are separated into a separate family. There are 16 species, four natural hybrids, and four subspecies growing in greater North America.
