I asked not because of disease, but because I know NOTHING about whether
his tree is one that is found growing wild in Florida, and if so, whether
it grows WELL, or just sort of eeks out a sad existence. My only exposure
to dogwoods is in NY, and the ones that grow beautifully aren't in the
middle of a lawn. They're in the woods, under bigger trees, in dappled
sunlight with a nice thick layer of duff on the forest floor.

I am just shaking my head yes. from anything I have ever read or heard,
Joe, it seams they require the conditions you mentioned. I'll bet they also
do well with nurse logs.

Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us
that we are not the boss.
