Default bringing a dogwood back from its death bed

Thanks- Are meristematic sprouts isolated to roots only or can they
form from the trunk? The growth is occuring all along the length of
the tree, with the most established branch/sprout being right under
the point where the trunk was severed (about 1ft from root ball).
This is now 6inches long and has started to harden like the original
branches, I hope this is a good sign.
