Southwest Garden Tasks: June Edition
June is here, which marks the official beginning of hot, dry weather throughout the southwest.
While most of us can be found indoors in the comfort of air-conditioning – your plants can be suffering from the heat and intense sunlight.
May and June can be some of the most difficult months for plants in the garden until the summer rains arrive in late June.
Need some helpful tips for your June garden?
Here is my June “to-do” list that I wrote for Houzz.com.
Noelle Johnson, aka, 'AZ Plant Lady' is a author, horticulturist, and landscape consultant who helps people learn how to create, grow, and maintain beautiful desert gardens that thrive in a hot, dry climate. She does this through her consulting services, her online class Desert Gardening 101, and her monthly membership club, Through the Garden Gate. As she likes to tell desert-dwellers, "Gardening in the desert isn't hard, but it is different."
