venus dogwood and new hamshire dogwood
Comments (11)Hi, we need two trees replaced and I'm very interested in the Venus, esp since I'm a bit north, I had 2 nurseries, one 5 mins from me (don't stock bc its Zone 6) and one 20 mins from me (its zone 5 according to them and they have one) give me conflicting Zone hardiness. I'm a bit wary now because I can't seem to find enough info with anyone growing them up here in Southwestern Ontario. Theres a C. Kousa Chinensis that is absolutely gorgeous here at half the price and I'm actually tempted to get it BUT if the Venus Blooms rivals that AND is really more Zone hardy then the choice is made. Anyone growing the Venus in Zone 5 or lower?...See MoreWhat happened to dogwoods this year?

Comments (5)Looks like bark was rubbed off? About all you can do for that is make sure there aren't any bits and pieces hanging, that you have cleaned off to where the bark has good adhesion to the trunk. As for not exactly bursting out with new growth in spring...may or may not be related to trunk stuff. What has the spring been like for you, as far as temps go? What was winter like? Wind exposure?...See MoreDo you know what dogwood color this will be?
Comments (1)looks like it could be flowering dogwood of the rubra variety not sure though, just going by what i know...See More- 8 years ago
