In return, America shipped dogwood trees to Japan three years later.

作为回报，三年后把山茱萸运到了日本。

This year she got a free dogwood as part of the program run by the utility company Pepco and the nonprofit Arbor Day Foundation.

今年，她得到了树免费的山茱萸，作为公用事业公司Pepco和非营利组织植树节基金会运营的项目的部分。

Upon the wooded hills above the river, the dogwood blossoms lay glistening and white, as if snow still lingered among the greenery.

河岸高林木葱茏的小山上，山茱萸开满了晶莹的白花，仿佛残雪还万绿丛中恋恋不舍。

When they had rounded the curve of the dusty road that hid them from Tara, Brent drew his horse to a stop under a clump of dogwood.

他们尘土飞扬的大道上拐过那个看不见塔拉农场的弯以后，布伦特勒住，丛山茱萸下站住了。

Outside, the late afternoon sun slanted down in the yard, throwing into gleaming brightness the dogwood trees that were solid masses of white blossoms against the background of new green.

外面，阳光斜照到场地上，映照着簇簇的白色花朵绿色的背景中显得分外鲜艳。

Spring had come early that year, with warm quick rains and sudden frothing of pink peach blossoms and dogwood dappling with white stars the dark river swamp and far-off hills.

春天来得很早，伴随来的是几场温暖的春雨，这时粉红的桃花突然纷纷绽放，山茱萸雪白也似的繁花将河边湿地和山冈装点起来。
