Kathleen's Garden

Glendale Arizona

Hi. My name is Kathleen and this is my garden in the Arizona desert. All be it not a very large one, I have tried to pack as much variety in plant material as possible including trees, shrubs, vines, annuals and perennials. It is an on going process and I am constantly trying new things out. There have been successes and there have been failures. I think for the most part in this climate, which is very challenging, I have been fortunate and very satisfied with the results. I love flowers and color and have learned that I can have that even in a garden in the desert.
