Different plants have different water needs. It’s important to keep this in mind when selecting plants and when choosing the area of your yard where you will be planting them.
Some tolerate drought during the summer but need winter rains.
Others need a consistent supply of moisture to grow well.
Careful attention to the need for supplemental water can help you select plants that need a minimum of irrigation to perform well in your garden.
If you have poorly drained, chronically wet soil, you can select lovely garden plants that naturally grow in bogs, fens, and other wet places.
If you do not want to spend much time watering your plants, choose accordingly. The wide variety of plants available will allow you to pretty much do what you want and still give you a colorful backyard.
