watering
Paul's Scarlet English Hawthorn is a hardy shrub that needs regular watering to thrive. The best time to water the plant is in the morning, when the ground is still damp. You should water the plant deeply enough that the root zone is saturated, taking care to avoid standing water. Depending on the soil type and environmental conditions, watering may need to be done 2 to 3 times a week. However, during hotter, dryer months, it might need to be watered more frequently. In addition to normal watering, keeping the soil mulched will help the shrub retain moisture. Ensure that you check the soil moisture level every few days to make sure it is not getting too dry. When the top 2 to 4 inches of soil feels dry to the touch, it's time to water.
