If you can find an acer griseum (paperbark maple) that would be the bomb.

Here are a paperbark maple and a cornus alternafolia together on May 25. pic 1

One month later, in June. Pic 2

Here is the fruit on the cornus, in July Pic 3

I just installed a paperbark maple in my new yard. I'm trying to find a spot for the pagoda dogwood. I know that they are not considered sexy, but I adored mine.
