Are you watering your tree in the wrong place? Mo Are you watering your tree in the wrong place? Most people are. Let’s break it down… When you first plant a tree, drip emitters are usually added near the tree trunk, which makes sense since that is where the roots are. But, as a tree grows wider, so does its roots. The water-absorbing roots of a tree are found at the dripline of a tree, which is usually located just outside the outer reaches of the branches. I often spot this problem when I visit clients and see a drip emitter next to the trunk of a large tree because that water isn’t going where the tree needs it. So what can you do? If you have a separate drip irrigation line for your trees, move the drip emitters to the edges of the tree. Alternatively, you can use a soaker hose (which attaches to your regular hose) and place it around the dripline and water deeply for 2-3 hours. If you already have plants (that are regularly irrigated) around the outer reaches of your tree, it is probably getting enough water.
