Questions and answers

Questions and Answers

Why were young trees protected with wooden guards?
Wooden guards prevented livestock, wild animals, and foot traffic from damaging vulnerable young trunks. This extra protection allowed saplings to grow straight and strong.
How did people water plants in medieval gardens?
Gardeners carried water from castle wells or cisterns using metal or earthenware containers. Regular watering was vital for newly planted trees during warm summer months.
