Use the plant water needs as a guideline. Actual plant water needs will vary for several reasons, including weather conditions, soil type, sun exposure, root depth, wind and elevation. Adjust your watering schedule as needed to meet the plants' needs at your site. Water recent transplants more often than established plants.

Santa Fe phlox is a small perennial flower that grows as a small green mound in spring. A native wildflower in New Mexico and Texas, it produces pink flowers beginning in May. It will bloom periodically throughout the summer. This is a great choice for hot, dry, sunny areas, the front of a flower bed or rock gardens.
This has been a great performer at the Demonstration Garden. Tolerant of heat and full sun, it has grown well in gravel as well as wood mulch. Will grow in a variety of soils, including heavy clay.
Cut to ground level in spring.
