Description

“Eye-popping proof that water-wise gardens are bold, beautiful and brilliantly hued.” —San Diego Home and Garden

Dry weather defines the Southwest, and it's getting dryer. As water becomes more precious, our gardens suffer. If we want to keep gardening, we must revolutionize our plant choices and garden practices. Hot Color, Dry Garden provides a joyful, color-filled way to exuberantly garden in low-water conditions. Garden expert Nan Sterman highlights inspiring examples of brilliant gardens filled with water-smart plants. You'll find information about designing for color using plants, architecture, and accessories, along with a plant directory that features drought-tolerant plants that dazzle.

This is a good book with great photos but would be most helpful to those gardening in the southwest USA. We also live in a desert but it's a cold desert so most of the plants mentioned will not grow here. Loved the photos!

This is an absolutely fabulous book with such a lot of information on how to deal with our drier climate and our need to save water, as well as creating a beautiful and low maintenance garden. having just moved from a wet coastal area to a semi arid area recently, the challengers were great and I am finding my way.
this book is very helpful in the way it illustrates gardens and talks to designers to help understand that a hot, dry garden can have colour, fabulous plants and still be attractive and serviceable.
The book is divided into sections with a gallery of gardens, plant profiles and lots more. a really informative and useful book, and not just for the arid areas.
