Roughleaf Dogwood.

Cornus drummondii

Description:

The hard white fruits ripen from August to October, and provide food for at least 40 species of birds, making it an important wildscape plant. The white fruits are quite showy from a distance, but as with American beautyberry, they don't last long because they are so quickly eaten by birds, who then help in distributing more plants.

Habitat:

Bittern Marsh Trail in Lewisville Lake Environmental Learning Area.
