red oak? If it is, it would be New Jersey's state tree.

Correct, except we call it the northern red oak, but technically they're the same thing so... Your turn!

Eastern hemlock? Uses... As timber?

And I don't know how to make it smaller, it takes me forever to find a small enough picture for my IDs!

I should probably check to make sure that the picture is small enough next time... Oh well.
Eastern hemlock is incorrect. Hint: It's got a pretty significant use.

Western hemlock? And for medicinal uses? If that's not it then I can't think what it is, or maybe it's not on my state list... :?

Pacific Yew? used for its cancer fighting substance--taxo...?
You can just hide it and use the image symbol so it doesnt take up space on the thread

I don't know if hiding it helps... What is the image symbol?
