the thing about those CITY TREES is they have it so easy and they don’t do ANY REAL WORK - one tree says to another in the middle of a field.

They look interesting from a cursory search I did after reading. We still drive laden trucks and manually water because there is no such thing as a fuel crisis. Bags are not something we do here or have seen done.
As the El Nino keeps forming and hitting record temps, mortality will increase and our urban soils, due to sprawl, are heavily modified with negative characteristics not really compatible with tree growth/health which makes that survival harder.
That said, we just had a record bout of rain for a Spring El Nino (usually hot and dry), another first/record broken for climate change.
They still drive around and water them manually, but the bags prevents the water from just evaporating. I think it’s like a remote drip watering.
Yes, drip is the most efficient for defeating hydrophobia and penetration. And it would shorten the dry periods by the time the truck gets back. It’s a good idea.
