Watering for the First Summer w.T 
ering of shrubs. Take away some soil around each bush, this forms a shallow basin 
which should be filled up with water two or three times. When all water is soaked 
down replace the dry soil which acts as a mulch to preserve the moisture. This 
method of watering keeps a shrub or young tree in best growing shape for two to 
three weeks, and is far superior to just surface watering of the soil.
