    Planting drought-tolerant plants is an excellent idea if you live in an area with unfavorable weather and water scarcity. They become less thirsty, stay resilient, and can survive in dry soil. If you like the idea, here are some of the Best Drought Tolerant Plants you can easily grow!
    1. Agave
    Agaves store water in their thick foliage, and this makes them live without it for long. Landscapers often grow them due to the low maintenance nature and unusual shape of their foliage too!
    2. Lithops
    Lithops are unique, stone-like succulent plants with a low-watering requirement. This attribute makes them one of the best plants to grow in small succulent displays.
    3. Sedum
    Known for its resistance to drought and low maintenance nature, whole sedum genus plants grow in all soil types and prefer plenty of light.
    4. Desert Rose
    Also known as “Desert Rose,” Adenium is a tropical succulent that requires occasional watering. It does well in full sun and can also be grown as a houseplant in colder climates.
    5. Jade Plant
    Featuring fleshy paddle-shaped leaves, jade is a popular succulent. It is also believed to bring good luck to the owner.
    6. Cacti and Succulents
    Cacti come in many shapes and sizes and do remarkably well in low water. These are perfect plants for desert conditions, and you can also grow them in pots.
    7. Bougainvillea
    Bougainvillea is a champion in tolerating drought phases. It’s one of the toughest shrubs that thrive on neglect in extreme and intense conditions.
    8. Moss Rose
    Moss rose is a drought-tolerant flowering plant that thrives in dry, poor soil. Due to its thick succulent leaves, it can survive for a long time without water. It can’t tolerate frost, and you can only grow it as an annual unless you live in warm climates.
    9. Blanket Flower
    The blanket flower has no special needs. Anyone without a green thumb can make it bloom prolifically. All it really wants is a sunny spot and occasional watering spells.
    10. Verbena
    Verbena is an excellent ground cover that spreads rapidly and thrives in high heat and infrequent little water. It does well in full sun and well-drained soil.
    11. Lantana
    Lantana is a tropical plant grown for its fragrant, colorful flowers. The plant loves heat and drought and is known for its less demanding nature. Because it’s invasive, it’s better to grow it in pots.
    12. Wallflower
    Known for their beautiful colors and sweet fragrance, wallflowers are short-lived perennials and require occasional watering. Flowers appear in spring and summer in clusters.
    13. Oleander
    Oleander is a tropical shrub that blooms prolifically. It produces beautiful fragrant flowers of different colors, like yellow, pink, red, white, and purple. All parts of it are toxic!
    14. Rock Soapwort
    Grow this plant if you’re searching for the one that thrives on neglect, requires no fertilizers, and performs well in poor soil and drought-like conditions.
    15. Sage
    This drought-resistant herb is famous for its aromatic flavor. Sage has low watering requirements, and overwatering can kill the plant quickly.
    16. Poppy
    Thanks to the vibrant colors, poppies are the biggest attraction anywhere when in bloom. To grow poppies, all you need is sufficient exposure to the sun and low to moderate watering.
    17. Lavender Cotton
    This mound-forming shrub has gray-green foliage and pretty button-like flowers that appear in summer. It does well in low water and thrives in full sun.
    3. Crown of Thorns
    Euphorbia milii tolerate the scarcity of water easily and don’t require special attention. It flowers almost year-round in a location that remains dry, warm, and frost-free.
    24. Russian Sage
    This tough and drought-resistant shrub is truly an admirable plant, thanks to its silvery foliage and beautiful plumes of lavender color flowers.
    25. Yarrow
    Yarrows are low-maintenance plants with decorative foliage. They’re suitable for borders, wildflower meadows, and rock gardens.
    26. Pineleaf Penstemon
    Pineleaf Penstemon is a herbaceous perennial and low-maintenance plant. It blooms wonderful scarlet-red flowers that attract hummingbirds and butterflies alike.
    34. Twinberry Honeysuckle
    This deciduous shrub flowers in orange-red blooms have trichomes (tiny hairs) that catch water and hold onto it, making the plant dro
    45. Wild Lilac
    Wild lilacs are colorful and fragrant shrubs that are evergreen and tolerant of drought. You can grow them in the landscape as hedges, ground covers, borders, and more.

    Excellent video. Would love to see these plants, together, in a hot climate no-turf garden design?
    I'm trying to renew my hot corner lot, HOA-tyrannized, where there are some foundation shrubs + A LOT of invasive spreading, matted ground-choking "grass" weed that's never been completely removed...

    You should really provide growing zones, many of these won’t grow in 90 percent of the US.

    • @erikm8372
      @erikm8372 Před rokem +2

      Yep. Even in zones where they can grow, like mine in San Diego, zone 10b, it’s not foolproof… they all have special needs. People think humans are the only ones with “special needs”… lol plants can be divas! Especially the succulents. People might see this video and think all these plants are just “set and forget” species, and none of what I can see are truly ‘self sustaining,’ one exception being the Agaves, which can grow in some colder climates as well. They basically can survive on rainfall alone, in arid climates; but even water won’t initially kill them, the issue being prolonged periods of wet soil… cacti require more water than agaves in my experience, and aloes are drought tolerant only after a WHILE…

      Veronica speedwell and the one you have is probably Veronica spicata.

    Your number seventeen lavender is incorrectly identified-it is a bulb called a grape hyacinth.

  • @vickikleist2263
    @vickikleist2263 Před rokem +3

    I don't think that was lavender. It looked like the Spring bloomer grape hyacinth. Beards tongue and Penstemon are basically the same thing

    No. 18 is NOT lavender, it is grape hyacinth, which is a small, spring blooming bulb best planted in drifts.

    So wonderfully stange, for a North European like me, to see "House" plants, being advised as draught tolerant garden plants.
    That would never grow outdoors in most Northern European countries.
    😮4:20😆 sorry, but that's NOT lavender...
    That's Grape Hyacinth or 'Blauwe Druifjes' ("small blue grapes") as we all know them here in The Netherlands 🇳🇱 🌷🌷🌷👋🏻

  • @erikm8372
    @erikm8372 Před rokem +1

    Hmm, this videos info is a bit generic, and many of these plants have special needs. Very few of these plants are just “set and forget”, even the agaves, lithops, and other succulents. I’d say ESPECIALLY the succulents! Lol. They can be needy as hell compared to what many ppl think! Some succulents have no tolerance for sun exposure and will burn, actually, any succulent is at risk of burning if you’re not cautious about where it’s placed. Even a cactus can sunburn. Agaves seem to naturally enjoy sun, but can take over if the babies are left unpruned. Lithops can’t really handle any water, more than a spoonful or two (literally) per MONTH. That being said, there are exceptions, so it pays to research…it’s not a foolproof option to use lithops… and really, they’re not a good choice for landscaping as they’re tiny, and only grow two leaves at a time. Split rocos, aka _Pleiospilis_ are a bit hardier than true lithops, but can be easily overwatered and turn to mush. And can sunburn.

    Oleanders are extremely deadly and 3 leaves can kill a horse, deer or cow. The seeds fly into everything including pet’s water and food dishes if outside. Your kids and pets could die.

    Watched the first couple of minutes, but had to stop watching because you didn't Include the Latin names as well as the common names, and PLEASE, get your pronunciation correct. Thank you. BTW, you said that moss rose is not cold tolerant, but my mother grew it in Wisconsin, Zone 4, and it came back every year. Too many problems with this video...

      I think these videos are being "narrated" by artificial intelligence. Leads to some interesting pronunciation!
