Dogwoods have been receiving a lot of attention in the media lately.
The problem is dogwood anthracI nose. This disease became a largescale problem first in the northeastern United States. It has now been detected from Virginia to Georgia. It can be devastating to both woodland and ornamental dogwoods.
Now is a good time to be on the lookout for dogwood anthracnose and to begin planting a control strategy. Infected, dead leaves from the previous summer are retained on the branches rather than falling as normal. Therefore if your dogwood still has deadened foliage on the branches, a potential problem might exist.
The anthracnose disease is more pronounced on woods trees than ornamentals. It is also more obvious in the mountains and Piedmont than in the coastal plain.
If you note a dogwood tree dying back from the top, it is not dogwood anthracnose. The disease always seems to start on the lower branches
