For several days now, I've been highlighting some scenes from Tucson and surrounding areas at 1 PM. These posts follow up my main topic for the day. I'm definitely here in Tucson and I want you to know that I haven't forgotten:) the core theme of my blog.
Here are some desert spaces near the El Presidio park in downtown Tucson that I think capture the heart of a Tucson garden. Note how the color and structure of the plant defines the space. It's pleasing to the eye. If you're from the midwest, like I was, it's strange for us to be comfortable with this as we like our green lawns and empty spaces filled with large trees and flowers. But after living in the desert for awhile, this type of garden really grows on you. Today I'd call this gallery of shots.....perfection:)

So here's my tip for today. This is a great way to set up your front yard at your home. Think of your backyard as a place to put your trees and special projects. The wildlife will thank you for your desert friendly landscaping:) |
