PLANTING DROUGHT RESISTANT

This Spring take into consideration the amount of water it takes for what you plant. With water restrictions becoming prominent in most areas carefully planning now can make all the difference later this summer. To figure out what plants are drought resistant in your area, read labels and research the plants online. See the list below. All of these plants survived last years severe drought and have come back with an abundance in my garden. I will start adding more to this list soon.
