Water the serviceberry

Serviceberry grows naturally near streams or in damp woods; it, therefore, appreciates cool soils. Watering should be regular so that the soil never dries up completely between two waterings.

Signs of a lack of water in serviceberry

  • Yellowing foliage that eventually falls off.
  • Restricted flowering.

Quality of serviceberry sprinkling water

  • Non-calcareous tap water.
  • Rainwater was collected in the tank.

Necessary material

  • Watering can
  • Garden hose
  • System dropwise

Frequency of watering the serviceberry

Most saskatoon trees are acidophilic, it is best to water them with soft water.
The soil should never completely dry out between two waterings; water even in winter if there is insufficient rainfall.
The installation of an automatic drip system can be an interesting solution to reduce watering chores.
In times of drought, water very regularly, preferably in the evening, after sunset so that the plant takes full advantage of the coolness of the earth.
Water regularly throughout the life of the shrub.
