I have a pretty big one at the lake that looked rough in the fall. I am curious to see if it blooms. I havent been there in a few weeks. Its in the way but I just cant cut it down yet.

It seems to me that when I bought this property 30 years ago and commented on all of the wild dogwoods I was told they have a lifespan of about 20-25 years, which coincides with the decline I’ve been seeing for awhile.

In my younger days when the dogwoods bloomed it meant the stripers were starting to run up the Saluda river behind the Lake Murray Dam. Spent many days fishing below the dam.

For us in north ga it was the also time to go white bass fishing in the rivers. I skipped many a classes at UGA when they were running.

Know of a nice spot on some WMA that had a ton last 2 years blooming. Will know how they are doing soon as I go back and turkey hunt…
“Duck hunting gives a man a chance to see the loneliest places …blinds washed by a rolling surf, blue and gold autumn marshes, …a rice field in the rain, flooded pin-oak forests or any remote river delta. In duck hunting the scene is as important as the shooting.” ~ Erwin Bauer, The Duck Hunter’s Bible, 1965

I might be overlooking it, but I don’t see the same disease in the “wild” trees, as I see in the neighborhood trees. I couldn’t find a healthy looking dogwood around town if my life depended on it. All the wild trees I saw turkey hunting yesterday looked great.

I stopped counting at 10 on the way from Campobello to Tryon this morning. Bangers. Happy Easter, folks! Jesus is on the loose!
