I looked through all of the previous posts and did not see this problem addressed: A client had a pruning mistake and he would like some advice.*** I planted a red twig dogwood shrub a couple of years ago and it seemed to be thriving pretty well. I was planning on pruning it back late winter or very early spring this coming year and had mentioned my intentions to my wife. I got home from work yesterday to discover she had pruned the entire bush leaving only 4” to 6” bare stubs next to the ground. What would be the prognosis for survival at this point or is this a lost cause now?
