Drought-tolerant plants aren’t just great for forgetful gardeners. You can plant these if you live in a hot area or have scarce water. Table of contents Best Drought Tolerant Plants You should know that there are no plants that don’t need water. Being drought tolerant doesn’t mean they...
HEIGHT4 to 6 feet HARDINESS ZONES6 to 9 Hearts-a-burstin’, also known as the American strawberry bush, is an unusual plant to add to your drought-tolerant native plant garden. This deciduous shrub is somewhat scraggly-looking, forming several sparsely-leaved, upright, green stems. ...

However, Gaff (1989) noted that whereas some resurrection plants, such as the African fern Pellea calomelanos, undergo little visible change in cell structure when dried, in other equally desiccation-tolerant plants (e.g., Borya nitida) membrane and organelle integrity is greatly altered. In ...
Yarrow is one of the easiest perennials to grow and is a good choice for beginners. All it needs is full sun and well-drained soil. It thrives in average to poor soil and is drought tolerant once established. Plants grown in rich soil tend to be tall and floppy. ...

Drought is one of the major environmental factors limiting plant growth and development. Drought stress tolerance in plants involves diverse and multiple physiological and molecular mechanisms. Priming and drought stress memory are key processes, by whic
One adaptation for severe drought is using drought-tolerant (DT) hybrids. Here, we characterize differences between conventional and DT hybrids in terms of yield and water-use efficiency under drought conditions at a regional scale of the Texas High Plains (THP). Using a validated version of A...
