Caution About Watering Trees In Butte Neighborhoods
Horticulturist Fr M Harrington of Montana State College warns Butte residents to withhold water from shade trees as winter approaches. Excessive late season watering weakens roots and promotes soft growth, increasing sunscald and winter injury. Withholding water strengthens root development and helps trees mature wood for the cold months. He notes this season’s priority is preparing trees for winter, with final fall watering advised after growth check.
