[edit] Monoecious or Dioecious?

This is another plant article that I've noticed does not say whether the tree is monoecious or dioecious. While this may seem trivial, it is actually an extremely hard-to-find fact (that's why I don't know), and would make Wikipedia more useful if it was specified. So if someone knows, could they add it to the article? --Edward Tremel 18:21, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, look what I found! [1]

This states that Cornus florida is monoecious, so with that in mind, those changes will be made. --chris 23:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edible or Poisonous??

I was looking through the web and see many mentions that the berries are poisonous to humans. This Wikipedia says they're edible! OK I'm not going to eat a bunch to find out in the face of doubt, nor do I even have any particular need to eat the fruit, but which is it? Danny Miller

Because there is no cite to the claim that the berries are edible I'm removing it. Please add a cite if you're going to re-add it. FyreFiend (talk) 03:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
