===

Dogwood is a small broad-leaf shrub, typically found growing along woodland edges and in hedgerows of southern England. Dogwood is commonly used as an ornamental plant in gardens, where it is used to provide autumn colour. The origin of the name comes from the smooth straight twigs, which were used to make butchers’ skewers. Skewers used to be called 'dags' or 'dogs', so the name means 'skewer wood'.
