Massive Water Savings

It may sound obvious enough, but it’s true: Drought tolerant gardens require less watering than traditional landscapes. Doing so, helps conserve one of our most valuable natural resources. These plants are especially valuable in areas facing heat, drought, or watering restrictions. Southwest, we’re lookin’ at you!

Water regularly during the first one to two years after planting to help roots grow deep and establish a strong, resilient foundation. Once plants are well established and growing in conditions that suit their natural needs, they can typically withstand extended periods with little to no supplemental watering.

Keep in mind that drought-tolerant does not mean "never needs water." Rather, these plants are resilient enough to withstand occasional dry spells without sacrificing their long-term health. Planting drought-tolerant plants helps us spend less time maintaining our gardens and more time enjoying it.

Better for the Environment and our Wallet

Reducing irrigation lowers water consumption and runoff while supporting healthier ecosystems. Many drought tolerant plants also improve soil structure over time and provide important habitat and nectar sources for pollinators. Using less water also means lower utility bills and reduced garden maintenance costs over time. Hardy, adaptable plants also tend to require fewer replacements season after season.
