Q.What To Do Re: Drooping Leavesof Tea Tree Shrub Not Responding Well To Watering

Zone Burke VA 22015 | Anonymous added on May 30, 2023 | Answered

Planted tea tree woody yesterday. It dropped shortly after planting but responded well to watering. It’s struggling today, but seemed fine this morning. The site is part sun and I think the soil is a good mix- not clay
