Owner reports:

Just a quick note. I indicated that I thought the drip system that waters the newly planted barberry bushes had been repaired. Unfortunately that was not the case. They had sliced the line when they dug out the over grown bushes and then repaired that broken line but didn’t repair the drip system in that area of the yard where the newly planted bushes reside. Obviously these plants started dying off. I have been trying to water them but the original problem has yet to be resolved. The singleton on the right side (as you approach the house) of the sidewalk is being watered by the sprinkling system. I’ll certainly try to give them water throughout the winter but at some point the drip system needs to be repaired.
