Our market extends from<br />
far East Texas, north to<br />
Utah and Colorado, and<br />
west into Central California.<br />
Many soil types, many<br />
hardiness zones and<br />
many varied conditions.
Are we running out of water
We have to do better<br />
than this
Windmill Palm<br />
Yes, its xeric<br />
BUT
Yes there are always special situations where a special plant<br />
Form is necessary
The picture postcard from the West need not be
With a sense of place, we can achieve something even better
This is what it is all about
But above it all<br />
We are always on the lookout for<br />
something new and different<br />
Or something old and tried.
No<br />
It is not the <strong>Southwest</strong><br />
It’s the Mediterranean Garden Society in Athens, Greece<br />
An area receiving only 9” of rainfall in a year
There are just lots of great plants out there that are more<br />
than willing to be beautiful for us….with little water.
Why should landscapes look like the mid west, like an English garden
Dry, low rainfall, its who we are
This is a part of what<br />
MEXICO really is
And the Americans are up in the trees
One must stop for fuel along the way
What are we looking for<br />
Adapted to heat, low water, salinity<br />
Tolerant of abuse and critters<br />
Disease resistant<br />
Something with sex appeal<br />
A plant consumers will succeed with
Sometimes, helping to be<br />
WAY OUTSIDE THE BOX IN DESIGN
And just because its native or adapted, doesn’t mean its well done.
Lets get a<br />
close look

Remember, it is forbidden to live in a<br />
town which has no garden or greenery.<br />
Kiddushin 4:12<br />
Recuerden, que es prohibido vivir en<br />
Una ciudad sin arboles y sin jardines.<br />
Kiddushin 4:12
One must expose oneself to nature
And sometimes you can sneak up<br />
on them when they are in bloom
Even in the Argentine Andes and in this country, Invasives are<br />
a problem
And just not everything works for everyone.
Sometimes, things just happen in our own<br />
back yard.
Course once you do find something, everyone wants a piece of it
Sometimes, the going ain’t fun
And the natives are sometimes ODD
Go find a native or adapted plant<br />
to pet and love
