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?

All the trees in the park are flowering trees.
So, a flowering tree should satisfy two conditions.
1. It should be a Tree (Some of the trees in the park are dogwoods).
2. It should be in the Park (Some of the trees in the park are dogwoods).
Since, dogwoods satisfy the above conditions, "All dogwoods in the park are flowering trees" - True.
Note: If the dogwoods outside the park, it may or may-not be flowering trees.
