Frequently Asked Questions
What is a drought-tolerant plant?
A drought-tolerant plant typically relates to plants that need very little watering once their roots are established.
With the current UK climate drought-tolerant plants are the way forward with heatwaves during the summer, hose-pipe bans and freezing winters, drought-tolerant plants are the perfect edition to ensure your garden looks bright and colourful all year round.
Do drought-tolerant plants need watering at all?
Yes, when they have first been planted and in their first growing season, the will need regular watering to enable the plants to build deep roots. After he first season they can survive natural rainfall, except during long dry spells, where they may require a little extra watering.
However, the beauty of most drought-tolerant plants is that their leaves and roots can hold a lot of water meaning they generally require less care.
When is the best time of year to plant drought-tolerant plants?
Best time to plant a drought-tolerant plant is either spring (March to May) or autumn (September to October), depending on your soil and plant type.
Should I feed my drought-tolerant plants?
It's recommended not to feed established drought-tolerant plants, or you can feed them very little. Adding any kind of fertiliser encourages fast, soft growth, meaning it may make the plant floppy and vulnerable to frost.
