Watering your trees made easy

All summer long, we’ve told you to water your trees. Reminded you about the 25 gallons of water young trees need each week to weather the hot season. Offered you a rain gauge if you pledged to water your tree. But now? We want to let you in on a little secret.

Giving your tree the 25 gallons of water it needs needn’t mean going back and forth between the faucet and your tree with buckets of water or leave you holding a hose for lengthy amounts of time. Slow-release watering bags, available in our online shop, can do the heavy lifting for you. Just fill with 25 gallons of water straight from a hose and the bag will do the rest, releasing the water in a slow stream around the base of the tree.
