Choose drought resistant plants in your landscape


Plant right for your site by choosing plants that need less water, have fewer pests, and grow well in the Northwest, especially in the conditions (sun, soil, and moisture) your yard.

July and August are usually dry months in the Pacific Northwest.  It is also the time when the snowpack has receded and flows are low.  This is the worse time to be using water for watering the garden.  Choose local or drought resistant plants to minimize the need to water in July and August.  Download Choosing the Right Plant for a Beautiful Trouble-free Garden from the Saving Water Partnership for types of plants and other landscaping ideas.
