Use a root feeder when watering newly planted trees and shrubs. It prevents runoff, gets the water to the root zone and saves water. These can be often picked up at a garage sale for a dollar or two.

Never heard of it. Care to share more details?

A root feeder is designed to fertilize trees.
It has a resasavor and a hollow tube that you insert into the soil
You attach a garden hose and thew water comes out of the bottom of the tube.
The water reaches the roots with no runoff.
Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes. ~Author Unknown

Are they found at the big box stores? Are they pricey? (sorry, don't do garage sales, normally)
