dogwood not blooming

verthwy
12 years ago

Hoping someone can tell me why my dogwood won't bloom. It was planted 5-6 years ago & has never bloomed. It's about 6-7 feet tall. We planted it at the edge of the woods where it gets shade most of the day but is not in deep shade by any means.

Any suggestions as to what to do with it to get it to bloom?

TIA
