Don’t Forget to Water Your Newly Planted Trees This Spring & Summer

Whilst trees are wonderfully resilient once established, the first year after planting is when they need a helping hand — especially when it comes to watering.

Spring sunshine and warm summer days can be great for growth, but they can also dry out soil far more quickly than many people realise. Even after rain showers, the roots of a newly planted tree may still be dry beneath the surface.

Without enough water, young trees can struggle to establish, become stressed, and show signs such as:

- Wilting or drooping leaves
- Leaves turning brown at the edges
- Early leaf drop
- Poor growth
