Isn't "it's not a tree it's a [name plant type] that looks like a tree" true for most trees?

True. “Tree” is not a compact category that encompasses all examples whilst excluding things that aren’t trees, not rather a vibe about whether something feels tree-like. Palm trees, for example, are not the same sort of organism as oaks.

Picture based reference guides for anything and everything. If it seems like something someone might print, physically post, and reference then it is a good link for this sub. Remember: Infographics are learning tools, guides are reference tools. Sometimes it's grey.
