I agree, Tony. You've got to cut off the main trunk or the tree will be too stressed. I have never collected a dogwood, but in general terms the few leaves the tree has the more slowly it will give off water. You collected the tree out of season, but if it doesn't make it you at least gave it a fighting chance.

I hope it makes it for you!
