First Test in North America
The time of
the planting was late summer. While our Tree Camel™ used for this demonstration
is colored light green (and shown at the forefront of this picture), remember
that the commercial Tree Camels™ are be colored dark green to better blend into
the landscape.
Anyway, water was hauled in two times per week to the "Brand
X" product (shown in the background and colored dark green) but, only once
every two weeks to the Tree Camel™.
For every gallon of water hauled to the Camel, eight gallons
was hauled to "Brand X" and 75% less labor was used.
Scroll down to see what the trees looked like as they went
into dormancy.
Interestingly,
the city crews also installed some of the same trees on another roadway, about a
block away from this installation. To save money, they used neither Tree Camels™
or "brand X." Guess what? Lots of trees died! So, if you are thinking... "Well,
the time of year had a lot to do with it... " It didn't. Very dry fall... very
dry soil... and trees that were very thirsty from enjoying a wet spring.
