Notes About Water Requirements

Water Requirements

Irrigation needs for your plant depend on various conditions such as sun exposure, soil composition, and location (distance from the coast). Because of this, you may see multiple requirements listed for a plant due to these different factors. Just because we list multiple watering categories doesn’t necessarily mean they will all be tolerated in your locality or garden.

For example: If you live in a hot interior location with fast draining soil and full sun, most plants you choose will require more moisture. If you reside in a cooler more coastal area with heavy soil and a little shade, less irrigation will be needed.
