What about those dogwoods that are in the park but are not trees so can't be flowering trees? Why are you ignoring them? Why do they get no love?

Suppose some of the dogwoods are shrubs. Then the third statement would be false. But since we don't have this information, the correct answer is "uncertain".

The correct answer is false. Because some of the trees in park are dogwood not all. So when we do it using venn diagram it will be wrong. So the correct answer is FALSE.

Since most of the trees in the park are dogwood (flowering), there might be other trees which are flowering too, for me, the answer is "uncertain".
