Watering Guide for Newly Planted
Shrubs & Trees
• There is no absolute solution to watering, given differing plant materials and site conditions. A guideline, however, for watering trees and shrubs is to make sure they receive 1” of water per week. When first planted you may need to water five to six times a week until the roots begin to move into the surrounding soil, but as the plant establishes, you can reduce your frequency of watering.
• Do not depend on irrigation systems for watering new trees and shrubs.
• If the plant foliage appears wilted, check surrounding soil for dryness. If the soil is very dry, simply water.
• Weather conditions will play a large role in determining when to water. Rainy, cloudy, cooler weather means watering less often. Sunny, windy, and warmer weather requires more frequent watering. In a dry fall/winter season, water new plants through the fall.
