    If you have got them then plant them immediately, its getting late. If you have not bought them you might be better to wait until October.

    If you do decide to plant them now you will have to water them frequently right through the summer. Depending on how big they are they will need half to a bucketful of water each two or three times a week if it is very dry. Don't sprinkle them with water as this doesn't really water them and some gardeners say it encourages roots to grow near the surface of the soil.

    I doubt you can over water them, but its better to give a good soak a couple of times a week than a sprinkle every day.
