Flowering Dogwood or 'Cornus florida'
It can grow 20-40' tall. Cornus florida is hardy from zone 5-9 and some to zone 4. Flowering Dogwood has a medium rate of growth. Leaf shape is typical dogwood, an attractive and different look in the northern landscape. The bark is attractive with the square and rectangle block pattern. Leaves are dark green in summer and a reliable red in fall. The white flowers emerge in April or May on the Flowering Dogwood and are 3-4" across. Flowering Dogwood berries are about 1/2" in diameter in a cluster and birds love em. Cornus florida is somewhat more disease prone than other dogwood with a few fungus and leaf spot. Flowering Dogwood is one of the finest native flowering trees and is a good specimen tree.

Synda...that should not be a problem for them. I have read that most people remove the red tuft anyway. I usually don't myself and they seem to germinate fine. Here is a link that might answer your questions. Let me know if you have any other ones. Thanks
