Vera, you're not supposed to give out direct answers, remember?

vera_ewing · Answer

"Frequently" is an adverb. Most adverbs end in -ly

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Well make sure to do that whenever you answer questions.

kyanthedoodle · Answer

But it's still a good idea to ask the asker what they think to make sure they understand the subject.

Oh okay. Well now that you know, can you close the question?

anonymous · Answer

B is not the correct answer.
" After a dry spell " is your adverb phrase modifying the verb " watered " answering the question " when was it watered " ?
" frequently " is an adverb, but it is not part of the adverb phrase.
