When used, germs [on a dirty washcloth] are then spread or reintroduced to the skin, which can cause irritation and even infection. To minimize the growth of bacteria and mold, hang the washcloth so that air circulates around it, drying it faster.
Dogwoods could live to be 60 or 70 years old, providing they stay healthy. I know of some that are probably 40-50 years old now. Unfortunately, they have many maladies. They suffer from Downy and powdery mildews, which coat the leaves reducing sunlight, slowly choking/starving them to death.
Select varieties of dogwood trees are native to the United States, have fragrant white flowers and can grow in full shade. Pacific dogwood (Cornus nuttallii), also known as western or mountain dogwood, is native to Northern California and the Pacific Northwest, and grows in USDA zones 7 through 8.f course youâll find differing characteristics among the varieties, however most dogwoods grow about 25 feet tall at a rate of 24 inches per year. These deciduous trees thrive in a partially shady place, although some grow in full shade.
