Leaf tips and edges often brown first, sometimes curling inward. Wilts, but may perk back up within a few hours of watering. In pots, soil may visibly shrink away from the container's sides. Growth slows, and flower buds may drop. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/12bdf3fe-af5f-4cc3-bdc9-385d37a03907/Sandy+Drought+1.png Garden Watering Sandy soil drains quickly, so even drought-tolerant plants need watering more often than they would in heavier soil. The green band shows the comfortable moisture range; the red line is the wilting point and the blue line shows the soil's water-holding capacity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/fbe60136-ac1b-4012-b415-20b8fc722755/Untitled+design+%285%29.png Garden Watering Overwatering (Root rot) - Leaves feel soft, limp and "mushy" rather than crisp — the key giveaway. Yellowing often starts with the older, lower leaves first. Wilting that does not recover even after more water is a red flag: the roots may have been damaged and can no longer take up water properly, so more watering only makes it worse. Stems near the soil may turn soft, dark and mushy, sometimes with a foul smell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/7e48dd3f-cda7-4be8-94ee-8e7b5e9577ca/Loam+Drought+picture.png Garden Watering Loam holds more water than sandy soil, so drought-tolerant plants generally need watering less often. The green band shows the comfortable moisture range; the red line is the wilting point and the blue line shows the soil's water-holding capacity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/8226786c-989f-4e53-9c14-6c18580b6d48/Untitled+design+%284%29.png Garden Watering The overwatering paradox - A wilting plant sitting in soggy soil looks exactly like it needs water — but it's often drowning, not thirsty. Waterlogged soil pushes out the air roots need (see "roots need oxygen too," below), so the roots suffocate and start to rot. Rotted roots can't absorb water even though there's plenty in the soil — so the plant wilts from a genuine water shortage, caused by too much water. Always check the soil itself before responding to a wilting plant with more water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/73b1bc2f-fde8-49b3-89f3-65ecf9c88665/Clay+Drought+1.png Garden Watering Clay soil holds much more water than sandy soil, so drought-tolerant plants can usually go longer between waterings. Water slowly and thoroughly when needed, giving the water time to penetrate the soil rather than running off the surface. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/7e590d8c-588f-4806-a60c-abc95bb5a636/Untitled+design+%283%29.png Garden Watering Leaf scorch (drought, heat, fertiliser damage) - Crisp, brown, papery patches, usually starting at the leaf margins or tips — dry to the touch, unlike overwatering's soft yellow-brown patches. Common causes include drought stress, strong wind, frost, or fertiliser applied too strongly or too close to the foliage. Not caused by watering leaves in sunshine — see the full myth-bust above. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/1ba8b7c7-8e71-4b97-9f68-28f788ab4f23/Sandy+Thirsty+1.png Garden Watering Thirsty plants need more moisture than drought-tolerant plants, and sandy soil loses that moisture quickly. They therefore need more frequent watering, especially during dry summer weather. The green band shows the comfortable moisture range; the red line is the wilting point and the blue line shows the soil's water-holding capacity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/bf9a4917-5851-4206-8eef-97e551fa6fb4/Loam+Thirsty+1.png Garden Watering Loam holds more water than sandy soil, making it better suited to thirsty plants. They still need regular watering during dry weather, but generally less frequently than the same plants growing in sandy soil. The green band shows the comfortable moisture range; the red line is the wilting point and the blue line shows the soil's water-holding capacity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6966250b153d34293991753b/e1fc9a40-d747-4861-993c-7b2c991c2749/Clay+Thirsty+1.png Garden Watering Clay soil holds a lot of water, making it well suited to thirsty plants, but it can also become waterlogged. Water slowly and thoroughly when needed, allowing excess water to drain away rather than watering again while the soil is already saturated.
