During the first year after planting, check all plants weekly by inserting your finger into the soil to a depth of 2-3". Water your new plantings when the soil is no longer moist. Slow, deep watering is preferred. A slow trickle of water from a garden hose for 45-60 minutes should be adequate for trees and larger shrubs. For small shrubs, perennials, or annuals, running a sprinkler or a soaker hose over the area for the same amount of time should be adequate.
Please note: Over watering is as bad as no water, so check your soil before watering.With shallower root systems, perennials react more quickly to drought, so monitor the soil conditions more regularly than with your other plantings.
