Question
I found several seedlings and one foot-tall specimen of this plant in an upland dry oak/pitch pine forest in Farmington, Ct. It appears to be Viburnum nudum, but I usually associate it with wetlands. Vaccinium corymbosum was growing nearby. Can you confirm from this photo?
Answer
Dear Steve, as best I can tell, the seedling you have photographed is Viburnum nudum or a related species. It has all the features I would expect for this species. Sometimes these plants do show up in odd locations. I can't be confident of this determination, but agree with you it appears to be that species. Best wishes.
