    They planted this little red maple stick (2in at waste level - Gandolf would smirk!) in the city easement and attached a drip bag to the install.

    All I'm supposed to do is make sure it stays full and it takes care of itself after that.

    Maybe. We'll see.

    It stayed full for a month while we were getting all that rain.
    But I filled it two days ago and again yesterday.
    So it seems that when the need is there it drips, otherwise it holds.

    Kind of cool. Especially if it keeps working.
    I might sneak in some Miracle Gro.

    Do not fertilize newly planted trees for a minimum of 1 (one) year. They need the "stress" to stimulate root growth and are susceptible to over-fertilized and damaged until those roots are established.

    Good advice.
    Soon as I made the comment earlier, I thought better of it.

    Digging in some, most everything I read goes along with your suggestion.

    Thanks.
