Is there anyway I can safely grow one near a anthracnose infected one? Would
one of the newer blight resistant ones be helpful and if so where does one find
them? We have an incredibly old and beautiful dogwood in the front yard
infected but I would like to get another growing in the backyard some time
before the day I will sadly have to remove the tree in the front. Part of the
reason we bought this house was that tree... I actually cued the realtor in to
point out "that lovely dogwood out there" he thought I was nuts till my husband
looked and voiced his pleasure lol. Dogwoods are a favorite of mine as well as
hubby's.Don't tell me to cut it down because my battle is futile, I know it is
but this tree is worth trying to prolong it's life; it's that pretty all
seasons, great shape and still has tons of blossoms come spring and the birds
still flock to it for the berries.
