The Importance of Rainfall and Water

"Drought damage is the result of trees needing more moisture than what is available in the soil. It affects all ages of trees, but new transplants are the most vulnerable.Symptoms generally start at the top of the tree and continue downward and may include the loss of needles, fading or yellowing of needles, and overall slow growth. During extreme drought, tree mortality may occur (Figure 3). The effects of drought may be from one growing season of significantly decreased moisture or from several seasons of below-average rainfall. Drought also leads to other problems, especially insect pests and diseases." ~Francie Diep Penn State Extension
