Which Trees Require The Most Water?

Trees love water. But some of them love water so much that they can grow even in wet areas where it’s even hard for grass to survive. If you have such areas around your yard, consider growing these trees in these areas, and they will still thrive. However, be careful not to grow them near sewer systems, sidewalks, and piping systems. They tend to take their roots wide and deep in search of nutrients and water.

River Birch

A beautiful looking tree for your yard. However, this tree requires too much water than it needs. It thrives around creeks and lowlands. If you grow these trees, ensure you have given them enough space and away from your house, septic tank, and lawn. It drops dead branches when it gets large enough.

The River birth prefers moist, acidic soils but can also do well in clay soils.

The Willow Oak

Another shade tree from the oak tree species is a perfect choice for urban areas. The willow oak has a fast growth rate and requires too much water. It increases two feet a year, producing acorns, which are favorites to many animals. These trees are mostly found along the streams. It resists diseases and pests and therefore makes it easy for you to care for it.

Swamp white oak
