Excited to share something a little different—yes, I grow vegetables, but I also love creating a desert landscape that’s low maintenance, low water, beautiful & full of pollinators. I’ve put together a list of my top 10 favorite desert shrubs (plus 3 I’d skip) and I’m sharing it all in a new video coming Friday morning.

Hope you’ll watch!

Part 3 of My FALL GARDEN SERIES Drops Tomorrow Morning: We’ve talked about VEGGIES and FRUIT TREES—now it’s time for HERBS.
Thanks for all your great questions. I tried to answer as many as I could in this video about fall herb care.
You’ll see what I’m doing with my mint, thyme, rosemary, sage, and more—plus what I’m planting now for a fresh start this season. There’s plenty of info for container-grown herbs too.

I hope you’ll watch.
