The angled insertion end (28) of a delivery tube (22) is placed in the soil in close proximity to the root system of a plant (48). An insert (30) containing moisturizing agent (32) is opened at an end to expose the moisturizing agent (32) and then placed through the receiving end (26) of the delivery tube (22) and into the hollow bore (50) thereof. A cap (24) is then removably placed over the receiving end (26) to seal the insert (30) within the hollow bore (50) of the delivery tube (22).
