What kind of tree is this?

Don't you recognize a flowering dogwood when you see one, Dagwood?

Those don't look like the fruit of any dogwood I have ever seen.

You need to get out more.

Here's a link that will answer your question-------

Would you like to finance a trip to Florida for me?

don't be so hard if my husband can mistake a mule for a horse than anything is possible. his direct quote was "wow what an ugly horse what the H*** kind is it?" so not knowing what a dogwood tree looks like isn't so bad

I know Dogwood. I have 3 of them in my yard but none of them have fruit like the OP posted. Since I am *not* in Florida I don't have a Cornus florida.

Cornus Florida is not just native to Florida.. It is native to all woodlandsfrom Missouri east to the atlantic and south from florida to north Ohio...

And that tree isnt a Cornus florida ( flowering dogwood) It is a Cornus Kousa ie. Kousa dogwood. The strawberr-ish fruit is a dead giveaway

In the Pacific Northwest, dogwood is a bush called bunchberry. (Cornus canadense)

I suppose it is your lame attempt at humor confusing a species epithet with the name of a state and you really aren't that stupid.

You obviously don't know the "flowering" dogwoods at all.

Cornus florida is found throughout much of the eastern US, is very cold hardy and widely grown as a hardy tree with several named cultivars with showy bracts in white, pink or red. There are even named hybrids available between it and Cornus nuttalii and Cornus kousa.

I have a Cornus kousa and the fruit does not look like those the OP referred.

In the PNW the native dogwood (Pacific Dogwood or Western Dogwood) is Cornus nuttallii. It is native from Northern California to to British Columbia. Cornus canadensis (Bunch Berry)is native from Northern California to Alaska.

I have never been to the Eastern US.

You should get out more. There is much more to life than playing with your computer.

Will your mommy let you do a Google search so that you can find out more about the various and many other species of "dogwood" (Cornus) that you still know nothing about?

Is there a possiblity it is a ilex aquifolium.. "J.C. van Tol".. ??

None whatsoever!!!!!

My mommy died in 1974 but before she died she warned me about top posting jerks.

The message from "Travis M." contains these words:

I'm going to dig up your mommy so she can teach you to edit.
