I noticed that the Dogwood has several areas that are about six or seven inches long where the bark of the tree is missing, lengthwise along the vertical limbs.
I confess that I have not given this tree any attention; no fertilizer/food over the years. It does not bloom flowers for a very long time in springtime.
Is this a good time of year to put in fertilizer/food stakes around the base of the Dogwood? If not, when is best time to give it a feeding ?
Thanks.
