What zone are you in? I am a gardener and live in zone 9. I try to buy mostly native plants for my landscaping as it gets very hot here in Texas and I need drought tolerant plants. I have 2.5 acres and also have 11 raised beds and grow tomatoes, squash (4 types), cucumbers, eggplant, blackberries, dill, basil, parsley and milkweed (I have a large butterfly garden). I usually put shade cloth over the entire garden as it gets very hot. It is suppose to be over 100 for the next week so I will have to water pretty much everyday. I have a well but it dried up last year so I am having to use city water until it fills back up which hopefully, being a La Niņa year, will be this fall. There are some great garden videos on you tube-I highly recommend Garden Answer and The Millennial Gardener. Gardening is my passion and if I am not at work I am outside in my garden. Good luck! I find gardening very therapeutic 😊
