What are the best plants/flowers to plant for extreme heat/sun?

By admin | December 8, 2009

jenn asked:


I live in an area where the temperatures reach about 115 degrees in the summer. I want to start a garden with a mix of flowers, but I don’t want to start planting and have everything die because it’s so hot. What would be some good plants/flowers for me to start out with?

      Brugmansias are awesome! I think they can take that much heat. Try to look up Xeroscaping. This is HEAT tolerant, drought tolerant stuff. This link has some beautiful tropicals to get some ideas.

      Cacti, yuccas, …….not tomato’s as someone suggested. The sun will bake them to a crisp.
