Winter (?) is here!

It's winter! But where is the snow? Not a whole lot has fallen yet this year, which means not much moisture for our trees and shrubs.  They depend on us to help them out.
This is just a reminder that it's very important to water those plants that need it, even in winter. Basic guidelines are to do it on a warm, sunny day (50s), as early in the day as possible. Water slowly, so that it has time to be absorbed into the ground. Remember to drain and unhook your hose from the spigot when done!
