Who is responsible for watering a newly planted tree?
All trees planted by the city will be fully mulched and watered at the time of installation. As the recipient of a new tree, you are encouraged to water and provide easy, basic care for the tree for several years after it is planted. If you can, water the tree weekly with about 10 to 15 gallons of water that is applied slowly with a hose or buckets. Watering can be skipped if more than 1 inch of rain falls during the week. (Follow this guideline for three years after the tree has been planted.)
