We have a few of these small trees in the woods, and I never really looked closely at them. But the warm weather has them blooming, and the long, white catkins glowed in the dark rainy woods, catching my eye. The catkins are the male flowers, while the female flower is a much smaller catkin, "with protuding red stigmas".
