Winter Watering in the Denver Colorado Area
Even though we have rain and snow in the fall and winter months, most years it is not enough to prevent damage to lawns, trees and perennials.
Your lawn and garden need some “winter water”. Areas around your home in southern or western facing locations are prone to need a little extra. Pay particular attention to moisture between October and March. Your plants can actually become damaged if they do not receive sufficient moisture.
You should only water when the air and soil temperatures are above 40 degrees and the areas have no snow cover. Water trees around the roots. Mature trees have a root spread about equal to their height so watering out from the base is essential.
