How to Transition My Existing Garden to More Drought-Resistant Varieties?
After a few seasons of battling with water retention in my garden, I've decided it's time to make a shift toward drought-tolerant varieties. My garden currently hosts several non-native plants that require consistent moisture. I'm located in Southern California, where the summers are dry, and I'm considering which of my existing plants I can replace or integrate with more drought-resistant choices. I've done some reading on xeriscaping principles, but I'm not entirely sure how to proceed with converting my existing layout. Can anyone provide guidance on the best practices for transitioning my current garden into a drought-resilient oasis? What should I consider when selecting new plants alongside the old ones?
