June Gardening Tips

June in the low desert is generally the driest and hottest month. Try to garden in the early morning or at sunset to avoid the intense sunlight. While many native and desert-adapted plants have numerous adaptations that enable them to live successfully in the desert, even they may need a little help to keep them healthy and thriving. Click here for tips on watering, fertilizing and more to keep your desert garden thriving during the summer months.

If you are new to gardening in the desert, the Garden offers a variety of classes that can help! View a complete listing of classes here.
