The Moisture Needs of Plants
Landscape professionals generally agree that
most landscaping receives more water than is necessary. In water shortage periods, you
should water only enough to keep grasses and plant material alive. You can, in part,
accomplish this by a process called hardening off. This means to gradually extend the length of time between waterings. Over a period of
months, the plants have a tendency to require less water and become more drought resistant.
