Abstract:

Now that North Carolina's official state flower, the dogwood blossom is staging its annual floral show, it is interesting to note some facts about the flower and tree. There are 25 species of dogwood in the world. The wood is white, hard, and fine grained - good for turning and inlaying. And the bark contains a bitter tonic that is used in the treatment of fevers.
