Southern AZ Homes - Gardening
The key to successful gardening is to know what plants are best suited for your area and when and where to plant them. Knowing your climate zone is just the start, however the microclimates around your yard will play a large part in having beautiful plantings. Here are just a few things to consider:
ü Sun Exposure - western & southern exposures are warmer and sunnier than eastern and northern exposures.
ü Wind Damage - strong winds can dry out soils or knock over fragile growth.
ü Elevation - cold air sweeps down hills and rests in low areas. These frost pockets are okay for some plantings, yet can be deadly to others.
ü Buildings & Fencing - determine wind patterns and play of shadows, these situations are ideal for some plants but can be harmful to others.
