I looked in my "Native Trees of Canada" book and it says right in there under habitat, "...requires a moist cool location." Out this way the Western Hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) always seems to grow in and to the edge of wooded areas and seems to grow best in sheltered summer-cool spots that remain moist. It's the most common tree to grow in the stump of a cut cedar.

ps. Maackia, I've added new pics to PF of a different species of Maackia but the blooms were to high up to get with my crappy camera. M. Fauriei
