Weekly Gardening & Green Tip:
Planting rows of tall shrubs or small trees can provide a wind break. Hot winds can be even more damaging to your landscape than the heat of summer alone. The effect is like that of a blow dryer on your plants. Most of the afternoon wind in the Phoenix area is from the west, so that would be a good place for a living wall. Note: Before attempting to diagnose or treat any problem, be sure to either bring in a sample of the plant (or email us a photo) or a soil sample for verification with our Garden Pros. Also, please remember that we can't see it over the phone!
Green Tip:
Don't kill those weeds--eat 'em!! Several species of so-called weeds are actually edible. Examples include: purslane, dandelion, amaranth, storksbill, shepherd's purse & others. Make sure you haven't already sprayed them with weed killer & that they are thoroughly washed.
Feature Tree: Palo Blanco (Acacia willardiana)
A slender graceful upright deciduous/evergreen tree with sparse foliage up to 15 - 20' tall, 10 to 15' spread; peeling outer bark reveals the white inner bark; very small leaves at the end of elongated petioles. The common name translates into "White Stick", describing its unique peeling white bark. It is native to the rocky hillsides in Sonora Mexico. Its leaves are made up of a thin 4" midrib that divides to form two leaflets about 1 - 3" long. Each leaflet then bears ten tiny leaflets. The canopy is almost transparent providing only the very modest of shade. It has white to cream colored, catkin type flowers appearing in the spring. Slow growing & low water use. Available in 15G & 24" box.
Feature Plant: Monk's Pepper (Vitex rotundifolia)
Indigenous to Hawaii, it is a sprawling shrub 6 to 8' in diameter and 6" to 2' tall, but can reach 4' in height and 12' in width in protected areas. The round leaves are gray-green to silvery and 1 to 2" long. The foliage has a spicy fragrance. The 1" flowers are bluish purple and are produced in small clusters at the ends of the branches which become 1/4" round bluish black seeds. Drought & salt tolerant. Although it can be invasive if planted in coastal areas, here it becomes deciduous in the winter. Available in 1G.

Feature Plant: Purple Heart (Setcreasea pallida)

The fleshy stems are first erect, later lying on the ground as a creeping herb, around 16" long. They make an attractive basket subject and can be used as a ground cover.Blooming in mid-summer to early fall, the 1/2" pale pink flowers bloom at the ends of major stems. Available in 1G.
