Light - Bright light to bright shade.

Water - Quite regularly in the growing season. These trees prefer to be deep soaked all around the root ball. You want to soak the tree to a depth of at least 2-3' each time you water.

Soil - This will encourage deep strong root growth. Allow these trees to dry out between waterings as, like any tree, they do not like to be sitting in water.

Water - Water your king palm at least once a week during the summer months, to keep the soil moist. Water less during cool or rainy weather.

Soil - Fertilize king palm twice a year with a slow release fertilizer. Use a fertilizer labeled 15-5-15 or 12-4-2, as palms prefer a fertilizer ratio of 3 parts nitrogen, 1 part phosphate and 3 parts potassium.

Light - Bright, full sun.

Water - A new palm should be watered everyday on its first week. Then, switch to every other day the following and then settle for 3 times a week on the third. Then, water as normal for established palm. For more established palms, watering should be done only 2-3 times a week.

Soil - Ensure that the top 24 inches of soil are moist after watering the first time, and after that, the plant only needs 2 inches of moist soil on an ongoing basis.

Light - Full sun.

Water - Water the new Mediterranean fan palm deeply every other day, but don’t water it if it rains. The ground must drain of water completely between watering. Water the base only, not the leaves, and extend the watering zone about 10 inches past the root ball.

Water - The tree is tolerant of drought but needs plenty of water when flowering and fruiting. Deep, even moisture is best for this plant. If well-established, date palm will tolerate drought.

Soil - Plant the trees in spring or fall for best results. Slow-growing date palm grows best in rich, well-drained soil.

Light - Bright light.

Water - Do best when kept slightly on the dry side. These plants are typically from arid regions and are very sensitive to being over-watered.

Soil - Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

Soil - Be sure you find a site with well-draining soil. Either sand or loam works well. It grows in either acidic or alkaline soil.

Light - Full sun.

Water - Water the tree when the top 2 to 4 inches of soil becomes dry. Water directly into the ground in a ring twice as wide as the tree's canopy. Keep the water 6 inches from the trunk to avoid causing rot.

Soil - Do not allow soil to become soggy. Requires fast-draining, sandy soils.

Light - Bright sun.

Water - Water it deeply until the water comes out through the drainage holes. To avoid flooding the tree, wait for the top few inches of the soil to dry out before watering again. With this fruit tree, it's much better to underwater than overwater it.

Light - Full sun.

Water - Water a newly planted mandarin tree twice per week during the Spring through Summer. Water once per week in the Fall and Winter.

Soil - These trees grow well in most soils, even poor types. The soil must drain well, as the tree does not tolerate wet roots.

Light - Full sun.

Water - When first planted, you will want to water it deeply. This helps the soil settle around the roots and will help you know if you need to level more soil around the tree. In desert environments, the Tipu Tree will need watering about 2-3 times a week.

Soil - They will grow in moist or dry soil, in clay, loam or sand. They prefer acidic soil, but also tolerate slightly alkaline soil.

Water - Most types of privets prefer constantly moist soil conditions, as long as the shrub's roots aren't sitting in standing water. Apply irrigation whenever the top 3 to 4 inches of soil have dried out, which may be every day or every other day depending on your soil type and the weather.

Soil - Privets are very tolerant of many soil types and do not require fertilization the way that other shrubs need constant feeding

Light - Full sun.

Water - These trees need deep, infrequent irrigation, but will tolerate additional watering in turf areas. Water should be applied at the canopy edge, or drip line of the plant.

Soil - Deep soil with good drainage.

Light - Full sun.

Water - Once established, most fruitless olive tree varieties are drought tolerant. However, theses trees need regular water until a good root system has developed. If water does not drain quickly, root rot is a potential problem. Add drip irrigation if convenient because the root system will need almost daily watering for some time.

Soil - It also requires well-draining soil. It can be susceptible to root rot if the soil remains damp for prolonged periods.

Light - Full sun.

Water - Young and mature oak trees need little watering, only once a month. You don’t need to water a live oak tree in the cooler months, as the winter rain will do that for you.

Soil - Like most trees, live oak thrives on moist well-drained soils. However, this species tolerates urban conditions including compacted or severely disturbed soils. Live oak tolerates drought conditions and root problems that lead to moisture stress.

Light - Full sun.

Soil - Average, moderately moist soil.

Light - Full sun or partial sun.

Water - Water a camphor tree during a drought with 1 inch of water once every two or three weeks. During the first year after planting, water it every week to help it become well established. Otherwise, a camphor needs little water to thrive since it is extremely drought tolerant.

Soil - These trees like to grow in fertile sandy soil with a pH level of between 4.3 and 8.

Light - Full sun.
