🌿Top 10 Native Plants to Grow in Arizona

from Mountain Gardener with Ken & Lisa · host Ken Lain

Hey Arizona gardeners, Ken Lain here! With our beautiful weather, it's prime time to plant natives that thrive here. Arizona Cypress is a fantastic evergreen for windbreaks and privacy. Silverberry (Elaeagnus) is a low-care, fast-growing evergreen shrub that softens fences beautifully. For vibrant blooms, try Manzanita, which is loved by pollinators and drought-tolerant once established. Consider our amazing Yuccas and Agaves – they're tougher than nails and offer unique textures. Red Yucca is a hummingbird favorite, and Artichoke Agave adds architectural interest. For a pop of color, Desert Willow blooms with orchid-like flowers, attracting hummingbirds galore. Don't forget native Redbuds, with their stunning pink blossoms. These ten natives are perfectly adapted to our landscapes, offering beauty with ease.   Subscribe for The Mountain Gardener updates!   🌿Ken Lain, The Mountain Gardener   #WattersGardenCenter, #TheMountainGardener, #GardeningTips, #KenLain,    #ArizonaNativePlants, #DroughtTolerantGardening, #LowCarePlants, #PollinatorGardens,
