is this Spike for Dogwood Trees?

Specifically, I'm not sure, but I've used it on the following: angel trumpet, orchid tree, 5 kinds of clerodendrum, ti plants, and miscellaneous bushes. All of them flourished ridiculously well! I'd recommend these things to anyone.

I assume that it is just fine. I can't recall of specific tree names are listed on the wrapper, but if you still have questions, call Jobe's. Hope this helps. H

I have used it on both dogwood and cherry trees. Not a huge difference this year but look forward to seeing if better this spring as I had not fed them in a long time!

Hi, Donald. Most dogwoods are deciduous, which means this product is perfect. There is an evergreen variety (called capitata or just evergreen...creative name, I know), and for that you would what to use the Jobe's spikes for evergreen trees.

I do not know about dogwood trees. I have used this spike on my Hickory tree, Ash tree, Maple tree and Spruce tree. They have all done well. Grew larger with many leaves. I am not a 'gardener' but person who uses fertilizer on my lawn, shrubs, flowers and trees. Dogwood is a deciduous tree and I would think that these spikes would not harm it -- as I have used it with my deciduous trees.

The number of spikes used is based on the size of the tree. Take a look at the product label for the coverage recommendations.

If your pot is bigger than the spread of the leaves, I would say yes. The spikes are supposed to be inserted into the ground/dirt at the drip line (edge) of the tree.

The spikes supplied are used when stands are placed on carpet. Use flat for hardwood or non carpet floors.

It did help my 15ft white dogwood. It had a black spot leaf fungus killing the leaves and limbs. Per our county agent I pulled back all the mulch within 10ft and applied directly to the open ground. I then doubled the dose and sprayed all the leaves which also dripped to the ground. I did three bi-monthly treatments before fall and saw a definite improvement. The spring leaves and blooms are not here yet, but if required I will continue the treatment.

It's made to go around the pole and into the wall, but the spike is enormous. I bought some metal U brackets (similar to the plastic brackets) and screwed the base into my deck.

I have used this on every plant, tree and shrub I have with NO problem. It's fantastic. I have a Dogwood and it did fine. Once you start using it you will be able to see if you have applied enough, or if you need to add more. I tried to "skimp" so let me save you the trouble. Use as directed!

I don't know for certain, but the purpose of the spike is to help the plant bloom. Period. I would count on a different product for your purpose.

Yes. However, I would set it up a week before you leave and make sure the water is getting to the plants. I live in the desert southwest and the spikes have worked for me for over a month at a time.

Although I don't have traditional cacti, I have used on my snake plant, which is in the cactus family. Work great! The plant gets minimal attention, and has been thriving since I started using the Jones spikes.

No , these come with spike only . As a footnote : they are very well constructed !

We have ours on a stone pad so we haven't used the spikes. I'm no help. Sorry.

Too early to tell. I put the spikes in during late autumn. I should know sonething this summer.

Yes it is, I used it on our concord vines, which it cuts easily. It adds about 4 feet to yournatural reach overhead. I love mine and my neighbors ask about it. These are well made, well designed and WORK.

No, i did not need the spikes since my floors are hard wood. On carpet however, I would recommend them.

The spike in ground is 5 1/2 inches and the above ground is 9 inches. This distance will be reduced by the size of your bark mulch or rock landscaping.

Neither one. They have tiny holes in them. Just fill your bottle with water and screw the spike on. Then stick it into the dirt at an angle where the spike will be close to the plant roots. It works better if you have thoroughly watered the plant first.
