Default How Often to Water Flower Garden?

Where do you live? What plants are you growing? How long have
they been growing?

I live in zone-6 in northern New Jersey. Here spring and early summer
is kind of wet. Summer can be hot and dry (probably not as hot as in
southern states though). Fall will cool down (I don't remember if fall
is wet or dry).

Remembre that roots follow the water: for maximum heat and
drought tolerance, don't water lightly every day. Water less
often, applying enough to wet the soil to a depth of 1 foot or so
doe annuals and small perennials, and up to 3 feet for trees and
large bushes.
