Look for Year-round Color when Landscaping

Having moved to the central highlands of Arizona from a Mediterranean climate 25 years ago, I quickly found new landscaping choices. No more orange blossoms blooming in the spring or year-round bougainvillea flowering in my garden.

One thing I didn’t have the patience for were plants that appeared stick-like through the winter and beyond. Waiting until May for them to come back to life was not an option.

Along with the need for year-round color we brought with us something else that had become a fixture in our yards, a pool.

I remember the real estate agent laughing at us when we told her that our plans included building a pool. The joke being that we had bought a lot on top of

solid granite. We had to forego that plan but have since built two, the latest on the side of a mountain.

I gladly share my list of favorite year-round evergreens with my clients and will here, as well:

• Boxwood

• Hicks Yew

• Nandina

• Vinca myrtle

• Hall’s honeysuckle

• Coral Beauty cotoneaster

• Hawthorne

• Pyracantha

And my favorite natural beauty — manzanita, with its pale pink blossoms and unique branches!

This spectacular shot by Blushing Cactus Photography was taken during last night's rodeo performance. Wow! Look for their rodeo photo on the cover of the Summer 2022 issue of Prescott LIVING Magazine. Free copies are available at Safeway, Fry's, and Sprouts stores and many other locations throughout the Greater Prescott area.What are the odds?! The lightning, the perfect sunset, the horse, the cowboys. This is proof that sometimes we only see what’s right in front of us. Such a crazy surprise to discover we had captured the storm in the background, creating a once in a lifetime moment in our photos from last night’s Prescott Frontier Days, Inc. - World's Oldest Rodeo!
