This beautiful, private roundabout, with its lush hydrangeas, catches my eye every time I'm here. We water these hydrangeas with a deep, thorough soak three times a week. The reason for this is to encourage the roots to grow deep down into the soil. When you water less often but for a longer duration, the roots are prompted to travel further down in search of water. In contrast, giving plants a little water every day keeps their roots close to the surface, which ends up wasting more water over time.
