    I'm in Portland, and everything just started blooming, but they all look the same to me. Here are three that are particularly troubling me:

    1) A short tree/large bush with big clumps of tiny white flowers with yellow pistils. (Photos 1, 2)

    2) A bush with clumps of tiny white flowers, and red berries. (Photos 3, 4)

    3) Another bush with clumps of tiny white flowers, this one with blue berries. My best guess is viburnum, but really I have no idea. (Photos 5, 6)

    Thanks for helping!

    Thanks! No wonder those first two looked the same to me.
