Watering Cherry Trees
General Watering Guidelines
- If the growing season brings about an inch of rainfall every 10 days or so, you should not need to provide any extra waternonetheless, if it gets really dry in a week's time, it is possible to offer your cherry blossom tree a great, thorough soaking. The best way to do it is to let your garden hose trickle around the root zone. This gives a chance to the water. Offer your tree water to soak the ground all over the roots.
- It's important to remember that, even when you're in the middle of a "brown-lawn drought", you should not water too much. After every 7- to 10-days (or even once every two weeks) is plenty. Worse than dry roots are waterlogged, drowning roots.
- Although a little depression in the soil assists by preventing runoff during growing-season watering, it is important to bring the dirt around the tree up to the amount of the surrounding soil for the winter. If this settled soil is not filled in, water could freeze the back around and injure the tree.
