With 2012 noted as the warmest year on record, and so much of the country still in the grip of devastating drought, the idea of landscaping with drought-tolerant plants is gaining popularity.
Here is an excellent “go to” resource for information and lists of where to find those drought-tolerant plants that will save you on water bills and add to the beauty of your surroundings. Don’t be fooled by the misconception that these plants are drab and without color. Many of them sport vibrant colors and flowers and attract such fun characters as butterflies and hummingbirds!
These lists offer sections for what works for different states and climates and will give you useful information to help ease decision-making. And be sure to check the comments below the article for additional information.
