Viburnum recognitum Fernald. Common name: Smooth Arrow-wood. Phenology: Late Mar-May; Jul-Sep. Habitat: Marshes, moist forests, streambanks. Distribution: ME, NY, and OH south to e. SC, c. GA, and ne. AL. Most populations reported form further west (IN, IL, WI, MI, MO) are either misidentifications or introductions from horticulture, but material from AR seems to be bonafide and native. Reports from the Gulf Coast are all likely misidentifications of other taxa in the complex (such as V. scabrellum).

Origin/Endemic status: Native
