Maintaining your landscaping and plants during extreme heat and water shortages can be challenging, but with a few simple tips, you can keep your garden thriving.

Apply a layer of mulch around your plants to retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and reduce weed growth. Organic mulches like wood chips, straw, or compost work best.

Choose Drought-Tolerant Plants: Incorporate native and drought-resistant plants into your landscaping. These plants are adapted to local conditions and require less water.

Prune Regularly: Remove dead or damaged branches and leaves to reduce the plant’s water needs and encourage healthy growth.

Shade and Shelter: Use shade cloths or temporary shelters to protect vulnerable plants from direct sunlight during peak heat.

By following these tips, you can help your garden withstand extreme heat and water shortages while keeping it lush and healthy.
