Are you a desert garden enthusiast? We’ve got great news! Whether you’re new to desert gardening and wondering where to begin, or a native Arizona gardener looking for inspiration, our new gardening guide has you covered!

CAZCA and members of the Urban Desertscape Enhancement working group teamed up to release the Central Arizona Urban Desert Landscape Guide, available now for free! The guide features more than 100 native and drought tolerant plants that are aesthetically pleasing and work well for ornamental horticulture in the desert, and includes recommendations and resources to help you make the most of your landscaped spaces.

In addition, this guide will help you identify and keep your garden clear of invasive species, choose how to harvest water for your garden, choose plants that attract pollinators, care for trees, make decisions about turf installations, and more.
You can view and download the PDF guide here.
