Dogwood Fertilizer

Question

I have 2 young dogwood trees. I planted them 2 years ago. They’re around 7 feet high now. One of them flowers well, but the other only produces one of two flowers and a lot of leaves. I was wondering if it was not blooming due to lack of fertilizer. Would you please let me know what I need to do to get it to bloom? Thank you very much.

Answer 1

It sounds like the tree could have too much nitrogen. Add a phosphorus rich fertilizer to them to get it blooming again. This article will have other suggestions as well: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/dogwood/dogwood-tree-not-flowering.htm
