Trees, Shrubs and Roses Check all young trees and shrubs planted since last autumn to ensure they have not been wind-rocked, or the stems rubbed against the soil and stake or tie as necessary. Water young trees if the weather turns dry. Give a heavy watering at about 15 to 25 litres per plant when the leaves are expanding, and repeat if necessary. Trees and shrubs in pots might need watering in dry weather. Evergreens can still be planted as the sap is not rising yet. Bush roses and repeat-flowering climbers should be sprayed now against blackspot disease if they have some foliage.
