water info |
Water this plant every couple of weeks through its first dry season. Use drippers, emitters, or a slow stream of water so that it does not run off; allow the water to trickle all the way down through the deepest layers of soil. Going forward it will not need supplemental irrigation, though it will look more lush if given water every three to six weeks during dry weather once established. In a pot slowly water the entire surface until water comes out of the bottom of your pot. |
