Seasonal Variations in Watering Requirements
As seasons change, so do the watering needs of your California privet. During spring and summer, when the plant is actively growing, it requires more frequent watering. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist by checking it frequently, especially during hot, dry spells. Conversely, in autumn and winter, the California privet’s water needs decrease as it enters a period of dormancy. During these cooler months, reduce watering to prevent root rot and other moisture-related issues.
