Cornus florida, or flowering dogwood is a common native tree that you might have growing in your yard!🌸 Have you ever wondered why their “flowers” last longer than other plants? That’s because those white “petals” are actually bracts! Listen as Alex explains where the actual flower is on the tree🌳 | Cleveland Botanical Garden
