This Xeric Demonstration Garden has four watering zones -- no-irrigation, low-irrigation (4 gallons/week), medium-irrigation (8 gallons/week), and high-irrigation (12 gallons/week) -- each with the same plantings. It demonstrates how the plant selections perform under each of the water allocations. Dan Smeal, NMSU irrigation specialist and garden manager, talks about some of his favorites for the xeric garden. Plants discussed in this video include cherry sage, abuelita penstemon, rocky mountain penstemon, autumn joy sedum, chocolate flower, red yucca, bush (sand) penstemon, giant sacaton grass, Apache plume, desert zinnia, and Rocky Mountain juniper. www.xericenter.com
