May brings hot, dry, and windy conditions to Southwestern New Mexico and West Texas. Here’s how to keep your garden thriving:
Ensure Efficient Watering
Check that all watering systems are working efficiently to combat the heat.Use Cypress Mulch
Apply Cypress mulch around plants to insulate roots from the sun and retain soil moisture. This also helps minimize weeds.Handle Winter-Damaged Plants with Care
Lantana, red bird of paradise, oleander, and other plants damaged by winter might start appearing now. Water them occasionally during winter and avoid premature removal.Care for Crape Myrtle
As crape myrtle begins to show flower buds, ensure regular watering and fertilization. To prevent leaf burn, use a soil acidifier like Ironite along with regular fertilizer. Regularly remove faded flower tips to promote blooming.Ideal Planting Time
May is perfect for planting species like Vitex, oleander, crape myrtle, roses, bird of paradise, Texas sage, butterfly bush, and red yucca. These xeriscaping plants thrive when watered thoroughly after planting.Tree Planting Tips
This is also a good time to plant trees, including ash, mesquite, desert willow, Chitalpa, Palo Verde, and live oak. Follow the same watering and care guidelines as above. For availability, call us at 505-523-1520.Regular Fertilization
