This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It’s definitely a cherry tree.

Dogwoods come in shades of pink and red too, plus their blossoms look completely different.

I guess I was too young and never questioned it. Growing up we called them pink and white dogwoods around Tennessee. ~~Almost~~ certainly wrong.
